Description

This is a railway arch built around 1846, designed by engineer Joseph Locke, which spans a sunken horse path and includes retaining walls to the southwest of the east portal of Hincaster Tunnel. The structure features roughly dressed rusticated limestone walls and a parapet, with a dressed limestone keystone and a band that ramps at right angles to form the coping on the east side's retaining walls. The west side has rubble retaining walls, and the arch has a brick barrel vault. The openings have a semi-circular head, with the west end being lower in height due to the sloping footpath.
