Details

LEATHERHEAD WATERWAY ROAD TQ/1656 SW (west side, off) 11/172 Railway Viaduct approx. 15 metres west of road bridge over River Mole

GV II

Ornamental railway viaduct over River Mole. 1867, for London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway Company. Red brick with stone dressings. Four semi-circular arches on rectangular piers with curved cutwaters; the piers have imposts, the arches have arch-bands and keystones, and in each spandrel is a roundel of raised brick; crossing the heads of the arches tangentially is a moulded stone string-course on 3 courses of moulded brick, and above that a balustraded parapet with square brick banded balusters and moulded stone coping. The soffits of the arches are built in winding courses of brick. History: the ornamental treatment of the viaduct was demanded by Thomas Grissell, owner of most of the land which the railway crossed in this area, and himself a railway contractor (reference: Alan A. Jackson Dorking's Railways, 1988).
