Join us for a special Steampunk themed guided walk and talk on Bennerley Viaduct.

Join us for... The Inaugural Great Bennerley Steampunk Promenade

Calling all Time-Travellers, Aeronauts and Steampunk Enthusiasts!

Prepare your goggles and ready your airships. A day of retro-futuristic wonder awaits at Britain’s ultimate iron marvel – Bennerley Viaduct

Learn about the history and stories (including the 1916 zeppelin raid) of The Iron Giant with a twist, whilst taking in the panoramic countryside views in the heart of the Erewash Valley.

Recently rescued by a grassroots group of Friends, and reopened to the public for cycling and walking, this 1400ft monument straddles the Derbyshire-Nottinghamshire border, with intricate lattice work and beautiful natural surroundings.

Walk along the new ramp and deck!
