    Tips

    The Dent Head Viaduct is now used by the Settle-Carlisle Railway but was built between 1869 and 1875 for the Midland Railway Company. It has 10 arches and is 100ft high (30.5m).



    On the descent into the Dent Valley you are afforded wonderful views of the viaduct. If you are climbing your way out, don't forget to look over your shoulder for a glimpse of the impressive sight.
