Smardale Gill Viaduct

This video looks at the ongoing remedial work to Smardale Gill Viaduct in Cumbria, a magnificent stone structure engineered by Sir Thomas Bouch as part of his erstwhile Stainmore route across the Pennines, built to serve heavy industry on both sides. The railway having long gone, the viaduct remains open to foot traffic, but still issues periodic demands to its owners, the Northern Viaduct Trust, for attention to its stonework and waterproofing. The first of a two-phase scheme began in June, costing £300K. Thanks to the Cumbrian Railways Association for the archive photos (https://cumbrianrailways.org.uk/) and to Dan Lebowitz for the music.
