Catesby Viaduct

From Graces Guide

This 12-arch viaduct carried the Great Central Railway's London extension over the River Leam, west of Staverton, which is SW of Daventry. The last trains passed over it in 1966.

See Geograph entry.

The Catesby Viaduct is 476 ft. long between abutments, consists of twelve arches of 34 ft. 3 in. span at the springing, with a rise of 14 ft. 6 in. The Staverton Viaduct (GCR) was similar in design to that of Catesby, and is 357 ft. long between abutments, and has nine arches.[1]
