Unlike other similar viaduct's which were demolished after the railway was closed, Chelfham has remained due to a school and other buildings at its base making it too expensive to dismantle.
There are long term plans to reopen the railway line and the viaduct enjoyed extensive restoration in 2000 as part of this project.
