Full description
The original St Germans Viaduct at 255m 74c was of composite timber and wrought iron construction, supported by timber trestles. The viaduct was replaced by a new masonry structure to the south, which was opened in 1908. Binding states that a masonry plinth survives in woodland on the west bank.
