Day three of collecting viaducts in Yorkshire, today I'm in Harrogate looking at the Crimple Valley Viaduct what originally served the Harrogate Brunswick Station (The tunnel to this station is still there) to Church Fenton line, what was one of the first lines to be axed by beeching.
The lower Crimple Viaduct was on the Leeds to Thirks line and served as a bypass for Harrogate Brunswick (what was a line terminus) however the viaduct was in incredibly poor condition by the 1950s and closed in early 1951.

Title should state Crimple, not crumple 🙁
Beautiful viaduct.
Fuck sake
It was my turn to post a pic of a viaduct.
You’re all just ganging up on me now.
Oop North has some great place names. Crimple, Ribble valley etc. landscape isn’t bad either
