Summary

[General description] This is one of two railway viaducts which spanned deep gullys in the Adelaide Hills. Completed inthe early 1880s they were designed by Captain Charles Shaler Smith, and imported from the Edgemoor Iron Company, Delaware, USA. When larger, heavier locomotives came into use in the early 20th century the line was moved and the viaducts became redundant. They were dismantled in 1920.
