Title: Hook Norton Viaduct for sale
Post by: Richard Fairhurst on July 25, 2024, 08:05:21
Well, the pillars, at least. The deck was sold for scrap a long time ago.

Asking price is £50,000: https://x.com/OxfordClarion/status/1815777370239795591

There’s an interesting history here: https://hook-norton.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/Visible-Remains-of-the-Railway.pdf . Apparently it was once known as “the Oxfordshire pyramids”!

How about a world Jenga championship with the appropriate tools…  ;D
