This 11 arch viaduct dominates the river Wharfe at Tadcaster and is great vantage point to see the town and river, well worth a stroll across for the pictures you’ll take alone.

A lovely little walk around this amazing town. Despite being known as the home of the brewing industry in the region, Tadcaster has a lot to offer in terms of architecture you’ll see on this short stroll.
Starting in on Bridge Street this walk follows the river to the viaduct that was originally built for the railway in the 1840’s. Now open to pedestrians, the structure is a great viewing point on the River Wharfe.
Whilst in the town make sure you check the 15th century building known as the Ark, a fantastic example of a period building as well as the hospitability of the brewing industry.
