Blue Hill Bridge, on the Grantham Canal, was flattened and culverted during road improvements in the 1950s. Along with many other similar cases on the canal route this means the towpath is no longer continuous and access is by ramps from the road. The footpath and cycleway along the canal is a popular recreational resource.
