River Roden at Rodington
Road bridge into Rodington crosses the small River Roden. Today it was in full flow from snow melt and recent rainfall, but the spring greening of the weeping willow signals warmer days on their way.

Disused canal bridge at Rodington
The bridge marks the route of the former Shrewsbury tub boat canal. This was a narrow-gauge canal, capable of carrying boats 6' wide with a 3' draught, which ran from the coalfields north of the area that is now Telford, to Shrewsbury. It opened in 1797, and became a branch of the Shropshire Union Canal in the 1840s, but suffered badly at the hands of the railway thereafter, and eventually closed in the 1920s. Relatively little remains of the canal these days, especially in the fields in this area, but this bridge and an embankment just east of here, plus the aqueduct at Longdon-on-Tern Image, and the warehouses at Wapenshall Image trace parts of the route from the Muxton area.
