Manchester Bolton and Bury Canal: looking south from Water Street bridge, Radcliffe

Looking south (actually more west than south) from the dropped bridge at Radcliffe. There were several mills on the right hand side of the canal here. The footbridge was probably a late Victorian addition, giving access from Ainsworth Road and Water Street to Victoria Street.
