THE LOST VIADUCT, nr St Cyrus Scotland

[Smellycat]

Part of the dismantled St Cyrus to Inverbervie line, this impressive viaduct is hidden away amongst trees, plants, nettles and overgrown thistles etc. ( My legs are still stinging yet..really shouldn't have worn shorts)It was hard to get a good photo of the viaduct as everthing was so overgrown and really hard to get a decent angle. Anyway these were the best I could do.

tangleha (sp) is a lovely little cove on the coast near there, ive also a feeling there was something on the beach there, only remains of a small fishing hut or summin

That's a nice little viaduct that (in a jungle kinda way!).

The stonework seems to be in fine fettle. Thanks for posting.

Nice one, Cat. Love the first pic especially...is that a path edged with a wall meandering beneath it? That's delightful.

yeah FL there is a walled path that goes underneath but it is so overgrown, you can't
really get very far.

the viaduct is really huge in height, which you can't tell from the photos and there is also
a hidden waterfall which you can hear, but again it is impossible to get to.

Bizarrely enough, I thought of waterfalls when I saw that first pic!

Looks a lot more overgrown than when we were last there SC.
Did you go and look at the old suicide bridge?
Here are some of the waterfall from our earlier visit.
