Warncliffe Viaduct

A Memory of Hanwell.

From the Uxbridge Road you can see the Warcliffe Viaduct. However if you cross the grass you can explore it more fully. I often went in the 50's and 60's to look at it close up. There were allotments then, but I very rarely saw people working on the them. Looking up at Brunels great masterpiece filled me with awe. How many bricks? How long did it take to build. It looked so great to a small boy, and come to that a teenager. I remember taking a new camera there to try in out, what a subject to photograph. What great treats Hanwell held in those far off days.
