It lies between the town of Great Harwood and the village of Read, and lies in both the district of Hyndburn and that of Ribble Valley.〔 The viaduct was constructed 1870–77 by engineer Sturges Meek.〔 It was built to carry the Great Harwood Loop of the East Lancashire Line over the River Calder.〔 That part of the line closed in 1957.〔 The viaduct was originally intended to be a wooden structure but was eventually built of sandstone rubble.〔 It has ten round arches, each wide. On a slight curve, the viaduct is high.〔 In 1984 it was designated a Grade II listed building by English Heritage.〔 ==See also== *Listed buildings in Great Harwood *Listed buildings in Read, Lancashire *List of railway bridges and viaducts in the United Kingdom 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Martholme Viaduct」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
