The Rookery Tavern, Elton Road, Elworth
The pub is named after the nearby railway and canal bridges, or possibly vice-versa. It had recently reopened (August 2024) as a free house, after some time as a tied pub.

Hall Lane railway bridge, Elworth
Actually a pair of bridges, the nearer modern steel bridge carrying the fast lines between Manchester and Crewe, and the older brick arch beyond (with a height limit of 3.7m) carrying the freight lines between Middlewich and Crewe. The presence of a sharp bend just beyond necessitates traffic light control.
