Ladykirk and Norham Bridge, Road bridge between Ladykirk and Norham, Scotland and England.

The four-arched stone structure spans the River Tweed with two middle arches of 90 feet and outer arches of 85 feet in length.

The current bridge, completed in 1887, replaced an earlier wooden bridge from 1839 and received strengthening modifications in 1952.

The bridge stands as a physical connection between Scottish and English communities, representing centuries of cross-border relationships through architecture.

The structure carries the B6470 road and Route 1 of the National Cycle Network, allowing vehicle and bicycle traffic between the two countries.

The bridge features hollow spandrels, a construction technique introduced by Thomas Telford to reduce weight pressure on the supporting arches.
