This large masonry viaduct was built to carry the Montrose and Bervie Railway, opened 1865, over the Upper North Water. It is partially curved on plan and has 12 spans, seven land arches and five larger skewed arches over the river. The latter are supported by heavier piers particularly those on the river banks. This section of the former railway from the viaduct to St Cyrus is intended to form part of the
National Cycle Netwo rk.
