Railway line at Preston Brook, Cheshire
Looking north from Chester Road Bridge. This line runs between Crewe and Warrington. The bridge ahead carries the M56 motorway.
Some infestation with Japanese knotweed is visible on the right. Apparently this almost indestructible invasive plant can be destroyed (at last) by use of an insect (Aphalara itadori) which only eats knotweed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_knotweed

Bridgewater Canal, Preston Brook: Claymoore's Yard
This is on the so-called Preston Brook branch of the Bridgewater Canal, which consisted of about 6 furlongs of canal line southwards from Waters Meeting Junction on the main line, to a point south of the A56 road bridge (Preston Brook Bridge) where an end-on junction was made with the Trent and Mersey Canal.
