Dowery Dell, between Rubery and Halesowen in Worcestershire, was a 234 yards (214 m), nine span lattice steel, single-track railway viaduct that carried the Halesowen to Longbridge railway. A 10 mph speed limit was in operation.[1] The line opened in 1883. Trains ran until 1964 and the viaduct was dismantled in 1965.[2]
