Flockton viaduct

Flockton viaduct
A remarkable survival is this twenty arch viaduct that once carried the wooden waggonway from Lane End Colliery to the Calder at Horbury Bridge. The actual date of construction is uncertain but the evidence suggests that this section was constructed in 1790-93. It was later converted to an edge railway of gauge 3ft 9ins and was presumably abandoned when Lane End Colliery closed in 1893.
