It is a late stone road arch bridge with four spans.
The two middle arches are of 90 feet (27 m) span, and the outer two of 85 feet (26 m) span, and the width of the roadway between the parapets is 14 feet (4.3 m).
The outer piers have triangular cutwaters, but the central pier has a curved cutwater that continues up to the height of the road, with a break in the parapet to create a refuge for pedestrians.

The bridge uses dressed-stone for the arch rings, and has coursed-rubble spandrels and wing walls.
It is built from red sandstone, and faced with ashlar dressings.
The spandrels are hollow to reduce the load on the arches, an innovation by Thomas Telford.

The bridge carries the B6470 public road between the villages of Ladykirk in Scotland and Norham in England.
It is just downstream from Canny Island, a river island in the Tweed.
