EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Hownes Gill Viaduct, a remarkable piece of railway history nestled in the picturesque countryside of County Durham. The viaduct, now an integral part of Waskerley Walk, stands as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship that went into its construction. With its striking blue arches and rustic brickwork, this architectural marvel showcases both the elegance and strength of Victorian design. The cast iron buttresses add an extra layer of charm to this listed structure, reminding us of its historical significance within the Stockton and Darlington Railway. As we gaze upon this scene, our eyes are drawn towards the lush green surroundings that envelop the viaduct. It is a reminder that even amidst modern transport systems, nature continues to thrive alongside man-made achievements. Bob Cottrell ARPS AFIAP DPAGB has masterfully captured every detail in this photograph - from the intricate patterns on each brick to the playfulness of light dancing through each archway. Through his lens, he invites us to appreciate not only the grandeur but also the serenity that can be found in such rural landscapes. This print serves as a window into history; it allows us to reflect on how transportation has evolved over time while preserving our connection with nature's beauty.
