This pedestrian bridge connects Low Buckholmside with High Buckholmside on the A7. The Waverley Line was closed in 1969 but trains will run under this bridge again when the new Borders Railway becomes operational in late 2015. For a side view of the bridge taken in July 2006 when the former line was a footpath, see Image This photo was scanned from a black and white negative.
