It is located in Cumnock, East Ayrshire. HistoryThe viaduct was opened in 1872 by the Glasgow and South Western Railway.[1] Under the Beeching cuts, the railway was closed in 1964,[2] although the last train had run on 4 June 1962.[3] It was restored for pedestrian use in 1972,[4] and is now part of a well-used footpath, going between Wyllie Crescent and Birchwood Road.[2][5] The viaduct was listed as category B listed building in 1977.[6] Near the viaduct is a stone known as the "Deil Stane" (Devil Stone), a stone around {{convert|6|by|7|ft}} in area and {{convert|15|in}} high, with a mark resembling a cloven hoof, said by local legend to be made by the Devil.[7] DesignIt is a masonry viaduct with 13 spans and segmental arches.[1] The highest arch is around {{convert|75|ft}} high,[8] and the structure is around {{convert|160|m}} long.[2] The viaduct runs in an east-west direction, with a slight curve to the south.[5][6] The piers, spandrels, and parapets are rubble with red ashlar underneath the arches.[6] Close to the viaduct is the Murray Park.[6] Cumnock, at the confluence of the Glaisnock Water the Holm Burn. Cumnock has two viaducts, the other being the Woodroad Viaduct.[9] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.scotlandsplaces.gov.uk/record/rcahms/43504/cumnock-glaisnock-water-caponacre-viaduct/rcahms?inline=true#map-wrapper |title=Cumnock, Glaisnock Water, Caponacre Viaduct |publisher=scotlandsplaces.gov.uk |accessdate=8 September 2014}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite news |url=http://www.heraldscotland.com/life-style/outdoorsleisure/life-after-beeching-a-boon-for-walkers-and-cyclists.1365213872 |title=Life after Beeching: a boon for walkers and cyclists |work=The Herald |date=6 April 2013 |author=Rebecca McQuillan |accessdate=8 September 2014}} 3. ^http://www.forgottenrelics.co.uk/bridges/gallery/glaisnock.html 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.scottisharchitects.org.uk/building_full.php?id=417141 |title=Glaisnock Railway Viaduct |publisher=scottisharchitects.org.uk |accessdate=10 September 2014}} 5. ^1 {{Google maps |url=https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@55.4495091,-4.2551493,17z |title=Glaisnock Viaduct |accessdate=10 September 2014}} 6. ^1 2 3 {{Historic Environment Scotland|num=LB24134|desc=Former Railway Viaduct now Footbridge, Murray Park|cat=B|access-date=28 March 2019}} 7. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.cumnockchronicle.com/news/roundup/articles/2014/02/13/488430-what-was-the-deil-stane/ |title=What was the Deil Stane? |work=Cumnock Chronicle |date=13 February 2014 |accessdate=8 September 2014}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.cumnockhistorygroup.org/places-viaducts.html |title=Viaducts |publisher=Cumnock History Group |accessdate=8 September 2014}} 9. ^{{cite book |author=Centre d'insémination artificielle du Québec |title=Ayrshire |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=D_Q8AAAAIAAJ&pg=PA154 |publisher=CUP Archive |pages=154–155 |id=GGKEY:P4J5YUNJB4N}} External links{{commons category}}{{coord|55.4487|N|4.2566|W|region:GB|display=title}} 4 : Railway bridges in Scotland|Viaducts in Scotland|Category B listed buildings in East Ayrshire|Listed bridges in Scotland |
