River Mersey
South of Warrington the river executes several large meanders. This photograph was taken at the apex of one of these, looking upstream. In the distant centre, but obscured by the foreground tree, is part of the original course of the river. The arm coming in from the rear left is a manmade alteration to the river course made to straighten the river upstream of this point.The original channel linked the river to the Manchester Ship Canal when the latter was constructed in the 1890s.
The path on the extreme right forms part of the Transpennine Trail and, just out of the picture further right, lies a section of the Runcorn and Latchford Canal.

Runcorn and Latchford Canal
A section of this canal still in water lies here by Eastford Road at Morley Common to the south of Warrington. The canal was opened in 1804 by the Mersey and Irwell Navigation to avoid difficulties on the Mersey in the Warrington area. The canal was closed with the construction of the Manchester Ship Canal in the 1890s.
