The views of the magnificent Conisbrough viaduct is impossible to overlook. It has 21 arches and is 1,527 feet or nearly 500 meters in length. It was opened in 1909 and consists of more than 15 million bricks, and features some beautiful decorative brickwork. It is so vast that an aerial ropeway was built to carry men and materials across the valley during its construction
