The remains of a bridge that carried the Talla railway over the Biggar Water. The railway was built in 1895-97 to carry materials and workmen from Broughton to the Talla Reservoir site higher up the Tweed valley. It was closed a few years after the reservoir was completed and the line was removed in 1912. See also Image
