Old tollhouse
About 200m southwest off the A7 at Lothianbridge is this original toll cottage once named Dalhousie now Deaflawhill Cottage. Sites like this, just off a main route, would be used to make sure all travellers paid their dues to the Toll Road Trust. There is a small window in the north gable from which the toll keeper could keep a watch. This cottage is marked on the 1845 OS map so will date from the first quarter of the 19C.

Old tollhouse
Looking from the track leading to Dalhousie Mains across the minor road from Lothianbridge to the toll cottage once named Dalhousie. Small cottages of this style were often built as simple tollkeepers' cottages or the tollkeeper and his family would be housed in an already existing cottage.

South Esk Viaduct
Carried and probably will carry again the Waverley Line across the South Esk at Lothianbridge, near Newtongrange. A familiar landmark to anyone who travels the A7.

Newbattle Viaduct
A fine grade B listed viaduct comprising 23 arches in total built in 1847. The viaduct originally carried the "Waverley" line from Edinburgh to Carlisle. It is presently being used to transport material for the construction of the "Border Railway" to Tweedbank and will eventually be used as part of that line.

River South Esk at Newbattle Viaduct
The piers of the 23-arch railway viaduct span the river and cross the valley taking the line to Newtongrange. Note the sandstone at the riverbank. The viaduct dates from the 1840s and has recently been refurbished for the Edinburgh-Tweedbank Borders Railway.

Newbattle Viaduct - 2
The tallest pier, sited in the bed of the River South Esk. This shows clearly the additional buttressing, which also serves as cutwater. If the river level should ever rise as high as the top of the cutwater, there would be an unimaginably catastrophic flood. Note how the river has cut itself into the solid sandstone bedding to form quite a narrow channel during the normal water flow seen here.
