Description
Railway basket-arched accommodation underbridge, constructed for the Leeds & Selby Railway 1830-4 to the designs of Walker & Burges; the contractor was Nowell & Sons.
MATERIALS: quarry-faced limestone and ashlar sandstone.
PLAN: single-span with provision for four tracks.
The arch springs from a quarry-faced impost band and comprises rusticated and v-jointed quarry-faced sandstone with a slightly dropped and projecting keystone with an ashlar string course above. The wing walls are straight and raked, and have added stone-clad embankments built against them. The parapet has distinctive, pronounced horizontal tooling with similarly detailed terminating piers.
