Manchester, Castlefield Viaduct, 360

Описание: This is a 360 view video of Castlefield Viaduct in Manchester. Castlefield Viaduct is a 330-metre (1,080 ft) long former railway viaduct built in 1893, which used to carry heavy rail traffic in and out of the Great Northern Warehouse, located in the Castlefield area of Manchester, England.

The Grade II listed[1] viaduct was designed by Heenan & Froude, the same engineering company behind Blackpool Tower.[2] The viaduct is part of the Historical Railways Estate and since 2022 approximately a third of its length is a sky park.
The viaduct was completed in 1893 and closed in 1954,[note 1] at the same time as the warehouse it was built to serve.[3] It was built by Heenan & Froude, a local engineering firm. The viaduct was used as a backdrop to several television series, including the Manchester-set soap opera Coronation Street.[6] It sat disused after closure until the 2020s, when it was taken over by the National Trust.[4]
Castlefield viaduct is now a garden walkway in the sky similar to the High Line in New York. The viaduct is about to be extended so this video is a historic record of the early stages of this love Manchester recreational space.
