'Historic moment': Union Chain Bridge between Scotland and England cut for the first time in centuries
A historic 17th century link between Scotland and England has been cut for the first time in centuries.
The Union Chain Bridge which has stood across the River Tweed since 1820 is now undergoing a £10.5m overhaul.
Currently being removed for repair, the full structure will be returned and reopened early next year.
