This bridge is A-listed, and dates back to approximately 1825-1830. It's one of the earliest carriage suspension bridges that are still in use. And the lovely views from it of River Teviot are a bonus.

Spanning the River Cheviot, the Kalemouth Suspension Bridge is an impressive structure close to the border of England and Scotland. It’s an unclassified public road bridge, and is one of the earliest surviving carriage suspension bridges.
