Forge Bridge, Wheelock

Image: © Stephen Craven Taken: 28 Oct 2024

This seems to be the local name for this bridge, relating to the former Wheelock Forge which was on the north bank of the canal just to the east. It now just gives access to a football pitch Image The brick arch bridge is more elegant than most on this stretch of the canal.
