Here you can see the footbridge, added to the viaduct in 1941 to give access to a nearby power station, now long gone. There's no decking on the viaduct or its footbridge and it would be foolhardy in the extreme to go clambering about on the structure for the sake of getting some interesting photographs. You'd have to do battle with some pretty dense vegetation too, including the Himalayan Balsam prominent in the foreground of this shot.
