Yarm Viaduct, Railway viaduct in Yarm, England.

The red brick railway viaduct extends 2,280 feet across Yarm with 43 arches, including 41 brick sections and two stone spans over the River Tees.

The construction of the viaduct began in 1849 under designer Thomas Grainger, reaching completion with its official opening on May 15, 1852.

The Grade II listed structure represents a significant example of Victorian railway engineering, demonstrating the industrial development of Northern England.

The viaduct carries trains between Northallerton and Eaglescliffe, serving both TransPennine Express and Grand Central passenger services, along with regular freight traffic.

The structure rises 65 feet above the river, with construction costs reaching £44,500 in 1852, when workers earned one pound per day.
