Dubious claims edit
I've removed two claims from the opening paragraph. The viaduct isn't in East Anglia by either the modern (NUTS 2) or historic (Kingdom of East Anglia) definition of the area. Secondly, the Stockport Viaduct is recognised by English Heritage as the largest brick built structure in Europe - http://www.pastscape.org.uk/hob.aspx?hob_id=76880. Regards, Dalliance (talk) 13:37, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
- There seems to be some disagreement here. Both of those claims appear (with sources) toward the end of the article. To be sure, things like "largest structure" depend a lot on definitions; just what is East Anglia, too. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 14:13, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
Dubious edit
The claim is the viaduct is over 1000m long i.e. over 1 km. It clearly isn't that long on the map. There are 32 x 30ft arches = 960 ft i.e. 320 yards. Allowing for the pillars between the arches, that would make 1136 feet seem reasonable, not 1136 yards. Did someone confuse feet and yards? Op47 (talk) 22:50, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
