Painting, watercolour, Wetheral Viaduct from Wetheral Mill, Corby Bridge on the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway, Wetheral, Cumberland, by Matthew Ellis Nutter, about 1835.
The composition is dominated by the viaduct which towers above the scene; to right of foreground a man leads a horse along the wide path running alongside the river Eden; two children playing at the water's edge watch him as he approaches. A wooded hillside descends to the water's edge on the far bank of the river.
