Treffry Viaduct, Railway viaduct in Luxulyan Valley, England
The granite structure rises 90 feet high and extends 670 feet across the valley, functioning as both a railway bridge and water channel system.
Joseph Thomas Treffry constructed this engineering marvel between 1839 and 1842 to transport minerals and water for the local mining operations in Cornwall.
The viaduct represents a crucial element of Cornwall's industrial legacy, connecting the region's mining past with its transportation infrastructure development.
Visitors can reach the viaduct through walking paths from Luxulyan village or park at Pont's Mill car park for direct trail access.
The structure incorporates two separate functions: an upper level for rail transport and a lower channel that carried water to power the Fowey Consols mine operations.
