It is very difficult to get a photo of this viaduct due to the whole area being in woodland, there are many woodland walks in the area under the viaduct, sadly the peace is rather spoilt by the A30 which also crosses the valley at high level. The viaduct, is now used by occasional trains travelling from Exeter to Okehampton, it used to be the main train line between London to Plymouth.
