This is a truly massive, monumental and imposing structure over River Teviot. This used to carry trains on the St Boswells to Tweedmouth line; nowadays, it's only open to pedestrians. From the top, there are gorgeous views of River Teviot in both directions.

This impressive foot/cycle bridge runs alongside the impressive Roxburgh viaduct (also called Teviot Viaduct).

The viaduct's four river piers have been extended to one side to support this low-level footbridge.

Not actually a cycle bridge, your expected to dismount. But its fun if you don't.
