![The viaduct was opened in July 1841. The 11 million bricks needed for its construction travelled up the Ouse River (via Newhaven and Lewes) from the Netherlands. It cost £38,500 to build[4] (equivalent to about £2½ million in 2000[5]).
The structure is a Grade II listed building and was restored in 1996 with grants from the Railway Heritage Trust and English Heritage. Matching stone was imported from France, to ensure a close match with the existing balustrades and pavilions.[6]
The viaduct is still used, with around 110 trains per day passing over it on the Brighton Main Line.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/179920/325a5ace-e975-42ef-a446-bb0bb36b18dd.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1200&h=500&q=medium)
