This is actually the second viaduct over this creek carrying the Cornwall Railway line out from Saltash (left) and on into Cornwall. It was opened 19th October 1894.
A stunning photo of the viaduct:

From the Cyberheritage collection we get this great aerial view from the very early 1980's
There is something wrong with this photo, at first I could not think what it was, then I realised the photo is back to front !! I know this area well I actually stayed on a houseboat at the top of the creek in the 1940's
