This viaduct carries the joint line of the former Caledonian Rly and the Glasgow and South Western Rly from Lugton to Kilmarnock over both the A735 public road (to the N) and the Annick Water (to the S) on the S side of Stewarton and to the S of Stewarton Station (NS44NW 15.00). It remains in regular use by passenger traffic.
The location assigned to this record refers to the centre of the structure. The available map evidence indicates that it extends from NS c. 41663 45631 to NS c. 41674 45456, and is approached over major embankments at both ends.
