Bridge 76, Morris Bridge
Now carrying a footpath over the Macclesfield Canal, Bridge 76 was originally built to allow the horses towing the narrowboats to cross from one side to another without having to release the tow rope (Image).
The Macclesfield Canal was one of the last narrow canals to be built and runs approximately 28 miles from Harding's Wood Junction on the Trent and Mersey Canal, along the edge of the western Pennine hills to Marple Junction on the Peak Forest Canal. It was surveyed by Thomas Telford with construction starting in 1826, with William Crosley doing the engineering. The canal opened in November 1831 having cost a total of £320,000.
