Description
The Clifton Railway Viaduct, known as The Thirteen Arches, is a railway viaduct that spans the River Irwell and is located in Swinton and Pendlebury. Built in 1848 for the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, the viaduct is constructed from rock-faced stone and is attributed to engineer J. Hawkshaw. It features a total of 18 arches and has a curved design. The structure is supported by battered square piers that hold segmental arches, which spring from impost bands. The arch over the river is notably wider and is flanked by flat piers that rise to the level of the parapet. The coped parapet is positioned above a continuous band, with square terminating piers at either end.
