September 12, 2020, Denemouth Viaduct

The railway viaduct at Dene Holme over Castle Eden Dene was completed in 1905. The viaduct has 10 arches, each spanning 60 ft. It is easier to photograph it from the eastern side rather than the western side which is very well-wooded.

A National Nature Reserve, this steep and well-wooded valley has been cut deep into soft limsetone rock by the action of Castle Eden Burn as it finds its way down to the coast. It has evolved over 10,000 years with majestic yew trees and strands of ancient oak and ash.
