Small three arch brick viaduct under the GCR/GWR line near High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire.

A brick built, three arch, viaduct under the new joint Great Central & Great Western Railway line near to High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. The viaduct was built as part of either the Northolt - High Wycombe contract or the High Wycombe - Princes Risborough contract. The purpose of the viaduct is unclear but is probably for a small river or stream. The photograph shows the old GWR line with broad gauge tracks lying alongside the new joint line, albeit at different levels. The new line sits on top of an embankment and a series of wagons can be seen on the viaduct. See on Route Map
