OS 1:2500 map, 1898-9.
This bridge crosses or formerly crossed the River Tweed at Hunter's Stream, some 2km downstream (to the E of) Peebles. It is apparently depicted on the 1st edition (1857-8) of the OS 6-inch map; the 2nd edition apparently depicts it as extending from NT c. 26825 40011 to NT c. 26808 39980. The location assigned to this record defines the centre of the structure.
It is unclear from the available map evidence whether or not the bridge still stands.
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 7 February 2006.
