Porthkerry Viaduct

Highlight • Monument

Quiet ride from Cardiff Bay

Tip by

30.0 km

Porthkerry Viaduct has 16 arches and was eventually re-opened in 1900 after a faltering start when numerous supporting piers settled and had to be underpinned and reconstructed. It's been pretty solid since and now it's a Grade II listed building.
