Healey Dell Viaduct, Railway viaduct in Rochdale, England
The Healey Dell Viaduct spans 105 feet above the River Spodden with eight stone arches, each measuring 30 feet in width.
Built in 1867 for the Rochdale to Bacup railway line, the viaduct carried passengers until 1949 and continued freight operations into the 1960s.
The Grade II listed structure represents Victorian engineering excellence, constructed entirely from locally sourced gritstone by railway builders.
The viaduct now forms part of the National Cycle Network Route 92, connecting with Route 66 and offering access to multiple hiking trails.
Visitors can view waterfalls beneath the viaduct through a passage near Waltons Angling Society while exploring Healey Dell Nature Reserve.
