Dog Lane aqueduct carries the Macclesfield Canal over Canal Road and is viewed here looking towards Congleton. It was designed by Telford as a cast iron trough constructed with plates riveted together and supported by stone piers at each end, further support is provided by the cast iron "arch" and the whole structure finished with iron railings at the top on both sides. The aqueduct gets its name from a small side road, the junction of which is visible in the foreground.
