Yair Bridge, Stone arch bridge in Caddonfoot, Scottish Borders, United Kingdom.
The Yair Bridge extends 45 meters across the River Tweed with three separate arches that each measure 13 meters in width and 6.7 meters in height.
William Mylne designed and constructed this bridge in 1764 following an Act of Parliament that authorized funding for both the bridge and 12 miles of road.
The bridge received Category A listed building status in 1971, recognizing its architectural and engineering significance within the Scottish Borders region.
The structure includes semi-hexagonal pedestrian refuges along its 4.19-meter width and carries the A707 public road across the River Tweed.
The bridge combines block masonry in its piers and abutments with rubble construction in other sections, demonstrating 18th-century building techniques.
