Vandring

This impressive viaduct is a Grade II-listed structure and was built in 1857 to carry the Bishop Auckland to Durham railway line across the River Wear. Spanning 828 feet (252 m) and built from stone and brick, its 11 arches stand 100 feet (30 m) above the river. The railway closures of the 1960s saw the viaduct fall into disuse. However, it was quickly adapted for foot traffic in 1972, before being strengthened to take the A689 road in 1995.

Cykling

Newton Cap Viaduct is Grade II listed and was built in 1857 to carry the Bishop Auckland to Durham City railway across the River Wear. The viaduct fell into disuse when the railway closed in 1968.

However, work began to strengthen the viaduct and convert it for road use. It was completed in 1995 and the busy A689 road was rerouted over the viaduct.
