Rothbury bridge has a long history dating back to the 15th century. It started as a three-arch bridge for pack horses and was extended with a fourth arch in 1759 to accommodate a wider river. The bridge was widened again in the 20th century to handle modern traffic, but safety concerns led to the removal of concrete and its replacement with iron railings in 1973. Most recently, the bridge underwent a complete refurbishment with new stone parapets.
