A substantial three-span rubble masonry bridge over the Tweed west of Melrose built in 1762. It was rebuilt above the arch rings in 1987–88 incorporating reinforced concrete relieving arches and mass concrete. Although much of the original stone was re-used as facing, this picturesque bridge is not as authentic as its appearance now implies.
