Waters Meeting
Despite the bucolic name, this is a very urban location on the northern edge of Stretford where different branches of the Bridgewater Canal come together. This branch of the canal heads towards Leigh.

Bridge to nowhere
A view of the canal towards Kelloggs. The land to the right of the canal once was used by the Avro Company to build Lancaster bombers during WWII. Once the bridge carried Moss Road into Trafford Park, however the land now is used as warehousing for Kelloggs, which totally blocks the route. The only use for the bridge is a footpath carrying a public footpath.
