Romannobridge
Romanno Bridge is a village on the Lyne Water, on the A701, in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland.
Settlements nearby include West Linton, [1] Halmyre, Dolphinton, Blyth Bridge, and Mountain Cross. The village is served by a community centre (the Newlands Centre), a small primary school (Newlands Primary) and a church (Kirkurd and Newlands Parish Church of Scotland).
The 3-span bridge itself was constructed in 1774.[2]
Romanno Bridge is on the route of the main drovers' road for livestock headed to market in England, and is now a stop on the Cross Borders Drove Road long distance path.
