Soaring above the wooded valley of Skelton Beck, this breathtaking aerial image captures the elegant span of the Saltburn Viaduct, also known locally as Upleatham or Riftswood Viaduct. Built in 1872 for the Saltburn Extension Railway, this red-brick marvel carries the railway high above the landscape with a rhythmic sequence of arches. Its striking Victorian engineering is beautifully contrasted by the dense woodland and the rooftops of Saltburn-by-the-Sea beyond.
Framed by spring foliage and soft sunlight, the photo highlights the harmony between heritage infrastructure and nature. A serene and nostalgic print perfect for fans of railways, historic architecture, and the unique charm of the North Yorkshire coast.
