Macclesfield Canal in Marple, Cheshire
This is the position of a former swing bridge, but doesn't show in the current bridge numbering scheme. There is housing on both sides of the canal now. 1871 OS maps (revised in 1907) show the existence of the bridge. Can anyone suggest when it was removed?

Marple Albert British Undenominational School was opened as an elementary school in 1868. It was transferred to the County Council in 1907, and closed 1931. The buildings were used by Armitage Street School, evacuated from Ardwick, Manchester, from 1939 to 1944. It has since been occupied by the garment manufacturers E&E Workwear, formerly E & E Overalls.
