Falling Sands Viaduct (Bridge 3) was completed in 1877as part of the [[Kidderminster Loop Line]]. It carries the railway across the [[Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal]] Conservation Area and 64 feet above the River Stour, about a mile from [[Kidderminster]]. It is built of red brick and is 132 yards in length, with seven arches of 46ft span.
After crossing the viaduct when travelling toward Bewdley, the area of land on the left of the line was the site of the former British Sugar Corporation's Foley Park Factory. The last visible structures on the site, two large silos, were demolished in 2012 and the area is now being developed for housing.
