The Roxburgh viaduct carried the Kelso branch line over the River Teviot. The line ran from Tweedsmouth on the Edinburgh to Newcastle line to St Boswells on the Edinburgh to Hawick line.
The gently curving viaduct has 13 arches, the largest six spanning the River Teviot. A footbridge still exists at the base of the piers on the downstream side.
