Don Viaduct (1854-)

Opened on the Great North of Scotland Railway.

Description

This viaduct is just north of Port Elphinstone. It carried the railway over the River Don and the course of the former Aberdeenshire Canal (just to the south of the river).

The railway has been redoubled and viaduct renewed (2019).
