The change-over bridge (Morris Bridge)
Now carrying a footpath over the Macclesfield Canal, Bridge 76 was originally designed and built to allow the horses towing the narrowboats to change sides without having to drop the tow- thus saving time. The next bridge, Bridge 77 (Image), is also a cross-over bridge and it is thought that they were constructed to allow through traffic to by-pass Image thus saving them time.
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.
