Balcombe Viaduct in the Ouse Valley in West Sussex is just 20 miles from the coast at Brighton.
Built by architect John Urpeth Rastrick in 1841 it's a towering testament to the skill of early Victorian engineers.
What makes this viaduct special is the that the design is incredibly elegant and slim with 37 arches, 100 feet high.
It extends for 1,500 feet and comprises 11 million bricks.
Balcombe is still a working viaduct, carrying the main London to Brighton rail line.

The wheat is contrasted well against the viaduct.

Love this. That pole with wires just bugs me so much but it remains a brilliant take. Nice perspective.
