Cannington viaduct from the air
Image: © M Etherington Taken: 19 Sep 2006
This viaduct was once part of the old branch line from Axminster to Lyme Regis which closed in 1965. The photo was taken from a passenger plane approaching Exeter airport. During the original construction which was in solid concrete, the builders had to fill in the arch on the left when they encountered subsidence between two of the arches.
