Figure 80 shows the track layout for Cotehill, based upon information from a Midland Railway survey of 1912.
Plate 209 shows Coleshill Viaduct - Bridge No 333 - 301 miles 3 chains. A comparatively short viaduct of 91 yards in length, it utilises construction techniques not previously seen. Stone was used for the abutments, piers, spandrel walls and parapet coping. The brick used for the arch rings was unusually not faced with stone. Brick was also used for the parapet wall on the string course above the spandrel.
The openings are on a slight skew; three being 46ft 10in and one 46ft 6in. The viaduct stands 60ft above High Stand Gill, one of the alternatives names often used for the structure, the other being Knothill.
Plate 210 is a view looking north over Cotehill Viaduct on 23 October 1958. Note the LMS bridge numberplate on the western parapet and the just visible painted Midland numbers on the eastern side capstone, the end stone of the coping.
Above the western parapet can be seen the terrace of four workers’ houses (/location-summaries/structure-301060).
