Abstract:		 September 2006 - March 2007. Oxford Archaeology carried out a programme of built heritage recording at Upperton Road Viaduct, Leicester prior to demolition. The viaduct was constructed c.1898 and carries the Upperton Road over the course of the Great Central Railway. It is a good example of Victorian engineering and includes an elegant skew arch bridge over the Old River Soar with a box girder bridge on the approach from the west. The expanse of brickwork gives it a solid and substantial appearance which is enhanced by riveted steel girders visible on its underside. Incorporated into its design is some attractive brick detailing. It represents a complex network of transport links with the Upperton Road being carried across another road, a right of way, several railway tracks, and a river.
