Must see viaduct just amazing

Very impressive viaduct. You arrive there when you pass into Rutland area.

The bit between Manton and the nature/bird watching centre appears to have been re-stoned with a very uncycle-friendly gravel. Too big piece size and not compacted down making it a bit scary for tyres less than 40mm I would say. As walkers and cyclists are only real users, it is unlikely to get better for years.

When King Edward I’s beloved first wife, Eleanor of Castile, died in 1290, he spent three days in intense mourning, unable to leave the Nottinghamshire village of Harby where she died. He then led her funeral procession, journeying some 200 miles to London over many days. To commemorate Eleanor, Edward commissioned three tombs and had 12 stone crosses built to mark each place where her body rested overnight on its final journey. He employed the best masons in the land to build them. (Text from: https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/eleanor-cross-geddington/history/ )

Shes a beaut of a stop off, lovely downhill under neath this into Harringworth

Spectacular structure striding across the valley of the River Welland. Best viewed from the high ground on the Seaton road.

An outstanding highspot on a rural ride from Stamford down to Rockingham along the Welland valley.

Welland Viaduct is a famous local landmark and a striking structure. You can see the many arches from miles in all directions, always a great backdrop for a photograph.
