What is recorded here

Inchbonny Bridge carries Newcastle Road across the river beside Jedburgh, a twentieth-century span built for the endless churn of wheels rather than the slow walk of feet. It is the kind of bridge that asks nothing of the person crossing, yet gives up none of its own history. Under its deck the water still moves with the old border country, carrying away every shadow the road drops into it.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Jedburgh, Newcastle Road, Inchbonny Bridge as Road Bridge (20th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
