The Cullen Viaduct is a well known landmark in north-east Scotland. This railway viaduct was completed for The Great North of Scotland Railway in 1886 to pass through the picturesque seaside town of Cullen, because the Countess of Seafield objected to the train passing through the grounds of her stately home, Cullen House.
The government closed the railway in 1968, and a coastal footpath now crosses the viaduct with magnificent views of the surrounding countryside, the town of Cullen and the Moray Firth, an estuary of The North Sea. The footpath also forms part of a national cycle path in the UK, SUSTRANS and a European cycling network called the North Sea Cycle Route.
