About

Kielder Viaduct is a bridge in lowlands. Established 1862. (Bridge in Northumberland.) According to Wikipedia: "Kielder Viaduct consists of seven semi-circular masonry skew arches and was built in 1862 by the North British Railway to carry the Border Counties Line across marshy land, which following flooding to create Kielder Water, became the place where Deadwater Burn joins Bakethin Reservoir. Now closed to rail traffic, the bridge is currently used as a footpath."
