Roch Valley Viaduct

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roch Valley Viaduct was built in the 1860s in Rochdale, Greater Manchester and carried the Rochdale to Bacup railway line between Rochdale and Wardleworth stations.

It was demolished in the 1970s. During the demolition of the section over the River Roch, the rest of the viaduct came down as well, but luckily nobody was hurt.
