Barmouth Viaduct

We are looking at the famous Barmouth viaduct here on the River Mawddach estuary. It is in fact the longest timber viaduct in Wales at 820m and the oldest in regular use. It was opened in 1867 and carries the Cambrian Railway line. It is also a pedestrian and cycle path. We don't see the impressive swing bridge here to the left for that is for another photo capture. The small town of Barmouth sits to the left too. We are standing near the terminus station of the Fairbourne Narrow gauge railway. The valley between the highest peaks here is were I took my Cregennan Lake and Pared-y-Cefn-hir photos from. see 3xPips
