The Borris Viaduct is an historic landmark dating from the 1800s, when Arthur McMorrough Kavanagh of Borris House facilitated the building of a railway line between Bagenalstown to the north and Palace East to the south. At the time Borris was a bustling, thriving centre of industry. The newly refurbished viaduct walkway is now a family friendly walk with safety barriers.
It is the perfect way to spend an afternoon and take in the scenery that Borris offers.
It is buggy friendly, has two free car parks, and is equipped with new signs about the history of the viaduct. There is a looped walk that offers the opportunity to walk underneath the viaduct arches.
These beautiful views are not to be missed, and with such a beautiful village to explore you will be glad you stopped!
