Edlingham Railway Viaduct
This railway viaduct is located under half a mile north-east of Edlingham in Northumberland, and close to Edlingham Castle. It was built in c.1885 for the North Eastern Railway Company, as part of the former Alnwick to Coldstream (Cornhill) railway, which opened in 1887.[1] Passenger services on the line were discontinued in 1930, although it was briefly in use during the Second World War, to serve RAF Milfield.[2] The line continued to be used for freight, until finally closing in 1965. The track across the viaduct has been removed. Edlingham Railway Viaduct is Grade II listed on the National Heritage List for England.
