Listed buildings. and yes, the Viaduct is listed.

Hi, more listed buildings in Accrington are:-

Friar Hill Farmhouse (approached from Moorgate, Bedlam)
The building once used as Manchester and Liverpool Bank, on Eagle Street, faces the station, not sure what its use now is)
Crawshaws Hall, Blackburn Road (this was formerly a Baptist Church) - I dont know if the listed building status still applies, cos I know for a fact the building was pulled down and rebuilt. Its the building along Blackburn Road, just under the arches, and before you get to that set of lights at the bottom of Paxton Street)
Railway Viaduct
St. Andrews Church, Swiss Street
Dyke Nook Lodge, Whalley Road, also the gate piers and perimeter walls.
St John the Evangelist, Addison Street
Slatepits Farmhouse (approach from Plantation Mill or Miry Lane, Huncoat)
*Spire Farmhouse, Barn and Shippon, Sandy Lane
High Riley Cottages (did you know that Owd Bert?)
Higher Hey Farmhouse and Cottages (Approach from A56 by-pass)

Grade I are defined as buildings of such great architectural or historical interest that they cannot be demolished apart from the most exceptional circumstances.
Grade II are those of sufficient architectural or historical interest that they cannot be demolished without very special reason
Grade II* are superior examples in that grade.
