Denemouth Viaduct, Castle Eden Dene


The railway viaduct at Dene Holme over Castle Eden Dene was completed in 1905.[1] It is between Blackhall Colliery and Horden, in County Durham. The viaduct has 10 arches, each spanning 60 ft. A wooden pedestrian walkway was attached on the seaward side of the bridge which was in use up to the 1950s - this walkway was the main route between Blackhall with Horden until a road linking the 2 settlements was built in 1926.[2]
