A railway bridge across Lovely Lane, Warrington. Warning signs indicate that the maximum safe height for vehicles is 15 feet and 3 inches.
Notice that the road dips slightly as it passes under the bridge. This suggests that the road may have been lowered slightly, to increase the clearance for vehicles passing beneath the bridge.

Railway Bridge over St Helens (Sankey) Canal
The Sankey Viaduct in Sankey Valley Park crosses both the canal and Sankey Brook. Known as the "Seven Arches", although it consisted of seven arches and one iron-girder span over the canal itself, this 1873 viaduct carries the Liverpool to Manchester via Warrington railway. It is thought that the span across the canal may have originally had a lifting mechanism, to allow the masts of the sailing barges to pass through.

Historic boating
The third boat, the BREVETTE, belonged to a Society member. It came in handy when the old air-cooled engine of the St Helen seized up after every few runs.

Historic boating
The WIZARD approaches the Cheshire Lines viaduct carrying the Liverpool-Warrington line. This boat, with a chairlift to make it fully accessible, was built and operated by the Parish of St James, Westbrook, and usually ran on the nearby Bridgewater Canal. Here it operates in 'home' waters, as the canal is here the Parish's eastern boundary.
