A cracking view of the Cannington Viaduct from here. This Grade II listed structure dates back to circa 1900 and is built from concrete. It's a disused railway viaduct, and the third arch from the west end has been reinforced by an infilling of brick.

The Axminster and Lyme Regis Light Railway was authorised in 1899, built from 1900 and opened in 1903.
