I was watching Emmerdale last night (Friday) & there was a scene where the character Ross Barton is walking over a trackless railway viaduct. As the programme is filmed in West Yorkshire,mainly around the Harewood estate,I wonder if anyone could identify the location. It will feature in a few forthcoming episodes this week. P.S:Don`t be too hard on me for watching Emmerdale.

Was there a reservoir in the background? If so, it will have been Hewenden Reservoir viaduct

I didn`t notice to be honest. As I said,it features again this week. Out of interest,if you are right about the location,what line was it formerly on as the name doesn`t ring a bell

Crimple Low Viaduct, near Harrogate I believe.

Question - does anyone know if this viaduct is accessible to walk across? It's on my list of things to do at some point.

I seem to remember it was fenced off last time I was there , but fences have a way of being circumvented.

With regard to the original question, the Harrogate to Ripon line has a viaduct across the River Nidd and it is a well-used bridleway.
