Wash Lane was up until about 1870 the name of the main thoroughfare from this canal bridge to the centre of Nuneaton. It subsequently became Gas Street reflecting civic pride in the town's gasworks, and then Queen's Road after one of Queen Victoria's Jubilees. Although Queen's Road still exists today nearer the centre of town the straight length of road over the bridge is now the B4102 Croft Road.
