Yarm Railway Viaduct
The railway viaduct over the River Tees between the towns of Yarm and Egglescliffe was built for the Leeds Northern Railway between 1849 and 1851, and officially opened on the 15th of May 1852. The viaduct was designed by Thomas Grainger and John Bourne and cost £44,500 to build. It is half a mile long and has 43 arches, most of which are in Yarm. Most of the viaduct is built of bricks (an estimated 7 million bricks!) but the section over the river is made of stone. The viaduct is Grade 2 listed on the National Heritage List for England.
