Summary

Description
English: Three bridges over the River Tweed at Leaderfoot Traffic is crossing Drygrange Bridge (1971-73), a composite structure of reinforced concrete and steel box girders. The bridge behind is Drygrange Old Bridge (1778-80), a three-arched stone bridge now closed to vehicular traffic, and the bridge beyond is Drygrange Viaduct (1863-65). Built for the Berwickshire Railway, it has nineteen slender piers of rustic-faced sandstone, the tallest being 37m above the River Tweed. The railway line was closed in 1948 but the bridge is in the care of Historic Scotland. (Source: Borders and Berwick, An Architectural Guide by Charles Alexander Strang).
