This pedestrian bridge connecting Low Buckholmside with High Buckholmside on the A7 was originally built for the Waverley Railway Line which closed in 1969. The bridge has been upgraded with Perspex side panels for the reinstatement of the Borders Railway due to become operational in late 2015. For a similar view in May 1986, see Image] and for a side view taken in July 2006 when the former Waverley Line was a footpath, see Image
