Building the last Main Line Railway
Catesby Tunnel and Viaduct: gcrcs160
Looking north from the rising ground above Catesby tunnel's
portal along the course of the GC's Main Line. Spanning the cutting beyond the
tunnel's entrance is bridge 488, a brick arch occupation structure built to
carry a farm track. Interestingly, located a short distance to the west of this
point is Catesby House, the historic building in which Guy Fawkes, Robert
Catesby and others hatched their Gunpowder Plot to blow up the Houses of
Parliament.
