    Railway viaduct. 1849. By A S Jee Huddersfield and Manchester Railway
    Co. Rock-faced stone. Total of 23 arches. Each arch is
    semi-circular, has rusticated voussoirs, and is supported on
    a rectangular pier with projecting plinth and springing
    band. 3 of the arches are skew and flanked by flat
    pilasters; they are Nos. 9, 15 and 21 (counting from the
    south). This was already part of the LNWR before completion

    I’ve no idea what rusticated voussoirs are, but it’s a listed building…

    Not a viaduct, but a very impressive bit of Roman engineering I ran under a few weeks ago that seems in the spirit of the thread:

    It’s notifiable, contact your GP asap..

    (I wonder if I can get a sick day by ringing in and saying that I can’t work because of rusticated voussoirs?)

    Oi you Southern softies, get out your bunker and get posting.
    OK!
    Fareham viaduct. Which used to be a nice sight on my commute, but the traffic through it rather spoiled the effect.

    Ah, if only it was still…
