The old Railway Viaduct across the Callan Valley at Tassagh. The railway from Armagh to Keady opened in 1909 and closed in 1957. It is said that 11 construction workers dies building the 11 arch viaduct, one for each arch. The viaduct is now a listed building. The Mill sits next to the River Callan and was used as a beetling mill in the linen industry. The photo is taken from an unclassified road on "The Beetlers' Trail" an 8 mile walk around some of the Keady mills. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tassagh_Viaduct
