Still closed at the far end

The headstocks have gone... Removed in Dec 2023 due to health and safety. Apparently they're going to be rebuilt at some point in the future at an estimated cost of £220k. 😅 Typical local council shenanigans... Don't make the structure safe or put a fence around it... Spend quarter of a million quid to build a new replica. 🤡

Dominated by the resident heron, who didn't care one jot about all the noisy families picnicking nearby. 😅

Viaduct is lovely but currently (as of 7th Sept 2024) closed at the Nottinghamshire end so no way across. Other than that definitely worth a trundle

This giant iron bridge in the Erewash Valley is a spectacular remnant of the bygone age of steam and coal. It is the longest wrought iron Victorian viaduct in the country, and it is still an impressive structure even in the modern era. Originally built in 1878, it was given a new lease of life in 2022 after it was open to hiking and cycling traffic. From this viewing point, you can see it in all its glory.

Now (July 2024) reopened after flood damage and refurbishment. Still good. Takes cash and card.

the eastwood end of the viaduct is closed at the moment due to construction work

Currently (Feb 24) closed for refurbishment due to flood damage - will open again soon
