English: Wardsend Viaduct, Herries Road, Sheffield, South Yorkshire. View showing four of the five arches which give this railway viaduct its alternative name. The viaduct was designed by Joseph Locke and built in 1845 for the Sheffield, Ashton-Under-Lyne and Manchester Railway to take its line over the Scraith Wood Valley. The Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway took over the company in 1847. Herries Road was built, passing through one of the arches, in 1920. The last regular passenger train to use this viaduct ran in 1983.
