Larkrigg Hall Bridge

  • Description

    "This bridge once spanned the Lancaster Canal, which at this juncture has now been drained of water and now stands high and dry in the middle of a field. The Lancaster Canal was originally built to connect the Leeds & Liverpool Canal to Preston, Lancaster and Kendal. The southern section later became part of the Leeds & Liverpool Canal and a tramway connection over the Ribble valley was abandoned in 1864. The northern reaches of the canal were closed when the M6 was built across the Canal in three places. The canal now runs from Preston to Tewitfield." Photo by Chris Heaton, 2024.
