The viaduct once carried the main line of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway
Nottinghamshire is home to so many amazing attractions and walks. From somewhere we all know about like Sherwood Forest or Nottingham Castle, to something a bit more peaceful like a local nature reserve or a National Trust site, there is just so much to do. However, we have come across a beautiful walk across an almost 200-year-old viaduct on the edge of the county that most people don't seem to know about.
It's a relatively easy walk, but not exactly pushchair or wheelchair friendly due to the steps at either side of the viaduct, although these are a bit longer and flatter on the Lincolnshire side. I decided to start the walk in Torksey, and brought along my rottweiler Bear who would never forgive me for going for a walk without him.
Now Grade II listed, the viaduct was restored and opened to the public in 2015. The actual walk across the viaduct took around 10 minutes, but you could probably do it quicker than this, as I was stopping to admire the views every few moments.
