The harbour and town are dominated by the three now disused railway masonry viaducts with brick arch-rings completed on the Great North of Scotland Railway coastal line in 1886 under the direction of its engineer P. M. Barnett of Blyth & Cunningham. The nearest viaduct to the harbour is in two parts, one with 13 arches, and the other of eight arches passes over the Cullen Burn at a height of 77 ft.
