Cropwell Town Bridge on the Grantham Canal
Bridge #21 on the canal which runs for 33 miles between Grantham and the River Trent at West Bridgford. The canal, which opened in 1797 and was abandoned in 1936, is now mostly derelict. Many of the original road bridges have been demolished and replaced with flat crossings such as this. Since the 1970s, the Grantham Canal Society have been working towards restoring the canal, and two stretches are now navigable. Full restoration, however, is unlikely as it would require the rebuilding of several of these road bridges.

The Grantham Canal Society has ambitious plans to restore parts of the canal to navigation http://www.granthamcanal.org/#. But some obstacles may make this impossible at the western end.
