The Ribblehead Viaduct carries the Settle–Carlisle railway across Batty Moss in the Ribble Valley in North Yorkshire, England.
The viaduct was built by the Midland Railway between 1869 and 1874. The project was a massive undertaking, employing up to 2,300 workers who lived in temporary shanty towns near the construction site. Over 100 men lost their lives during the construction.

Congratulations. It is a better image than I have obtained so far – and I live only 30 miles away.
