Description
The Marple Railway Viaduct, built in 1863 for the MS & LR Railway Company, is a railway viaduct located in Marple. It features snecked rock-faced stone with repairs made in engineering brick, as well as one span constructed from wrought iron girder. The structure includes 12 stone arches and one wrought iron span that crosses over a road, the Peak Forest Canal, and the River Goyt, which is 38 meters below. The arches are semi-circular and rest on plain square piers that taper towards the top. There is a rock-faced corbel table and coping on the parapet wall, and the wrought iron span is skew with a turtle back parapet.
