Description
Smardalegill Viaduct spans Scandal Beck and was completed in 1860 for the South Durham & Lancashire Union Railway, with Thomas Bouch as the engineer and Wrigg of Preston as the contractor. The viaduct is constructed from rough-hewn sandstone blocks, featuring dressed arch soffits. It stands approximately 90 feet high and is about 550 feet long, supported by 14 semi-circular arches, each spanning around 30 feet. The structure has tapered piers and battered pilasters at the abutments. A cornice runs along the top, supporting a parapet that is about 2 feet high, while the track bed is approximately 25 feet wide. The viaduct crosses the parish boundary with Waitby and is currently disused.
