Tweed Bridge, Stone arch bridge in Peebles, Scotland.

The Tweed Bridge extends across the River Tweed with five stone arches, featuring triangular cutwaters on the upstream side and rounded profiles downstream.

The bridge dates back to the fifteenth century, with records from 1465 indicating construction or repairs by mason John of Peebles at this location.

The structure received Category A listed building status in 1971, marking its importance in Scottish architectural and engineering heritage.

The bridge carries the B7062 road traffic across the River Tweed, serving as the primary crossing point within the town of Peebles.

Cast iron street lamps decorated with intertwined dolphins stand on the bridge parapets, added during the 1897-1900 expansion project.
