Description

The Fareham Railway Viaduct, built around 1848, is a notable structure made of red brick featuring a white brick stringcourse. It has a parapet with stone coping. At the north-east end, the viaduct has seven round-headed arches that rise from the land. This is followed by a wider skewed arch that spans Cams Hill, along with two narrower blocked arches that are flanked by pilasters. The structure is completed by eight round-headed arches over the Cams or estuary of the Wallington River.

Local climate

Railway Viaduct receives an average of 800 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 54% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 74% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 20 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 79% of listed buildings. Of these, 8 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
