Glaze Brook enters the Manchester Ship Canal
Here, on the border between Cheshire and Salford, the Manchester Ship Canal receives the waters of Glaze Brook (also known as the River Glaze). The Glaze drains a substantial area of mossland hereabouts and was the boundary between the ancient Lancashire Hundreds of West Derby and Salford.This latter fact is recorded on the wall of a bridge near here that carries the A57 road over the Glaze, but as the wall is made of sandstone the lettering is wearing away.This part of the Ship Canal is a canalised section of the River Mersey. The Mersey joined the canal a little way upstream of this point (to the left) and will leave the canal a little further downstream, close to where the River Bollin joins the canal.

Marge and Steel Roundabout
The design is based on an idea developed by artists Marcela Livingstone and Liam Curlin with local people. It all came about by asking the views of local people. The children wanted a modern super hero theme and adults talked about the Steel and Margarine works that used to be here. Retired workers told them about the tea dances they enjoyed. An idea was developed to portray the dance of these two industries which forged people's lives together in Irlam & Cadishead.
