Edstone Aqueduct, Cast iron aqueduct in Wootton Wawen, United Kingdom.
The Edstone Aqueduct stretches 479 feet across Salters Lane, the North Warwickshire Railway Line, and a small river near Wootton Wawen.
William Whitmore engineered this Grade II* listed structure in 1816 as part of the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal construction project initiated in 1793.
The structure represents early 19th-century industrial engineering with fourteen spans supported by thirteen tapering brick piers made from English bond grey bricks.
Visitors can access the site through Bearley railway station, located within a 15-minute walk, or use the dedicated parking area at the southern entrance.
The aqueduct features an unusual design where the towpath runs at the base of the canal instead of at water level.
