Northern end of railway viaduct

This was taken from the north end of the railway viaduct looking north. The building on the right is the original Tip Farm. It is called tip because much surplus earth from the railway construction was tipped down the bank here. It is probable that there was so much spare earth fill because the railway was designed to be built on an embankment across the valley here, but the Bollington Urban District Council demanded a viaduct, so the railway builders had to get rid of all this fill somewhere else!
