Archaeology Notes

NT85NE 86 85026 56391

This bridge formerly carried the Reston-St Boswells branch line of the North British Rly over the Whiteadder Water immediately North of Chirnside Paper Mill (NT85NE 69). The river here defines the boundary between the parishes of Chirnside (to the N) and Edrom (to the S).

The line opened in 1863, and closed to passengers in September 1951 and to freight in 1965.
