Lydbrook Viaduct (General)

I seem to remember reading that the "height" of the viaduct at the steel central span was 110 ft ( for us yung 'uns) or 33 metres for our very young readers !

so in Rugby terms that is 11 times the standard cross bar height and about 3 times the height of a typical post !

no mean feat , I hope he played for Lydbrook RFC or Gloucestershire, or even England :-)
