This viaduct formerly carried the Ferguslie-Stonehouse line of the Caledonian Rly. across the Avon Water. It probably closed to regular passenger traffic on 4 October 1965 as part of the Strathaven-Hamilton (Haughend Junction) route.
The river here defines the boundary between the parishes of Stonehouse (to the W) and Dalserf (to the E).
