View Through the Vaulted Piers of the Ouse Valley Viaduct
This popular view is through about 35 of the Viaduct's vaulted piers, over a distance of about 430Mtrs. The variations in the colour of the bricks is mainly due to a number of major restorations during its near 200 years. Standing on marshy ground near the river, coupled with the constant vibrations and weight of rail traffic has caused settlement of the piers.
