The viaduct carries what is now London Overground's railway line through Watford High Street station to Watford Junction over the valley of the River Colne.

The railway was a comparative latecomer, only being built by the then London & North Western Railway just before the start of the First World War.

The road in the foreground is the A411 Dalton Way.
