Built in 1849 for the Newcastle, York and Berwick Railway Company, this railway viaduct in Newcastle is Grade II listed.
The Batty Moss Viaduct was built 1870-1874 from Rockfaced stone and brick. Consisting of 24 segmental arches, it is 104 feet high at highest point and is the largest and most impressive of the viaducts of the Settle - Carlisle line of the Midland Railway. Directly beneath the viaduct is the Ribblehead railway construction camp and prehistoric field system, which is a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
The Grade II Eynsford Viaduct in Kent dates from the 19th Century. Spanning the River Darenth, it was built for the Sevenoaks Railway.

Visitors are invited to delve into the origins of migration, religion, home and working life, as well as unpicking embedded racism through archive imagery. Rare and little-before-seen photography have been made available exclusively to NOW Gallery for a unique month of exhibition. In addition, newly commissioned works interrogate concepts of multiculturalism, intersectionality and a sense of place through the lens of emerging, contemporary photographers and arts collectives.
