Slightly better angle, showing erosion damage to the upstream side of the "training wall" under Arch One.

Pier between Arch Two & Arch Three. Was difficult to tell with poor lighting, but my suspicion is the the void now extends to, or almost to the stonework foundations of the pier. I may be able to persuade someone to examine this in more detail.

Down in the hole --- void under Arch Two. Not quite as deep as in 2025, but definitely extends further widthways --- again, pointing out the rusty gabion wires, and how little remains of the remaining concrete "roof".

5ft ranging pole - that wasn't the deepest point, just where I was able to rest it safely. You can gauge how little of the surface layer is left, over a drop of 4feet or more onto an unstable pile of cobbles and pebbles.

Having found somewhere to stand - looking upstream under Arch Two. All three of these big holes in the surface connect into the massive void underneath - much wider than it was. Note also, that the surface concrete is very thin in places.

Now exposed, the gabions used to hold rocks for filing the voids / providing a "hardcore" foundation for the concrete surface layer. Decidedly rusty remains, with sharp points.

Another view, with ranging pole, of the main voids under Arch Two - now linked up. Admittedly this isn't quite as deep as it was, but it seems much larger in extent.

A void, about a foot (30cm) high and extending to almost the full length of my ranging pole - so 5ft or thereabouts - has developed to the upstream side of the timber piling / weir.

Larger void - to the downstream side of Arch One. A longer length of the timber piling [previous weir ?] is now exposed, and the void extends towards the camera's POV, as some of the concrete "capping" has gone.

Evidence of past repairs [the aggregate in the concrete is of a visibly different colour] and the shape suggests a filled void.

Erosion under Arch One has exposed more of the old rails [ex-railway, standard gauge] that were buried in concrete as re-inforcement.

General overview from the north bank. The black shapes are some of the openings to extensive voids under the concrete layer, visible in the low flow conditions. I would say that the damage is more severe than was visible in 2025. Most erosion is under Arch two.

The first design [K1] of telephone kiosk for the GPO. Built from concrete, they were not popular and of the 1,000 installed between 1921 & 1925, perhaps only 14 are known to survive, with half of those in museum collections, as here at EATM. Sadly, it is locked shut for security reasons - however, I think the phone inside is a little younger than the box.

Two banners marking the entrance way into the museum ... The concrete walls of building H1 look rather brutalist in concept. {and the sun has definitely faded the red signage}. HWW !

A glimpse of the mass concrete Glennfinnan Viaduct (from the A830. No sign of the Mallaig train ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenfinnan_Viaduct and check out the story about the entombed horse !

It makes a change to find a bird has walked over wet concrete - in my experience, the culprit is usually a cat or small dog. I hope whatever it was managed to get those feet washed off quickly - wet concrete can cause nasty chemical burns !
