Description: Grade II listed railway viaduct, built 1857 for the North Eastern Railway's Durham - Bishop Auckland line. In 1871 the route from Tursdale Junction - Durham - Newcastle was developed and this became the main line from London - Newcastle replacing the route via Leamside. In 1987 the viaduct was cleaned of 130 years of smoke & grime that had built up from the city's housing and industry.
