Aqueduct in the woods

An aqueduct in Swartha Woods built by Bradford Corporation Water Works in 1858 to carry water to Bradford from reservoirs on Barden Moor.

It is a Grade II listed structure and the listing says "Rock-faced stone and ashlar. 3 segmental-arches on tall piers with cavetto moulded imposts, margin-dressed rock-faced voussoirs aligned to the courses, punched-dressed intrados. Hollow-chamfered band and coping to ashlar parapet. Dressed abutments surmounted by cast-iron railings, the bars with spearhead finials."

But you knew that anyway.
