Fledborough viaduct
Fledborough viaduct's 9 million bricks in 59 arches formerly carried the Lancashire, Derbyshire & East Coast Railway for half-a-mile over the River Trent. It was built for £65,000 in the 1890s with two lines, though in the 1950s traffic was restricted to one train at a time and ended permanently in 1980 following a derailment at nearby Clifton-on-Trent.

It now carries NCN route 647 between the former Clifton on Trent Link and Fledborough Link stations
