SJ7697 : Barton road bridge

Eccles, Salford, Great Britain

Barton road bridge
Barton road bridge
Nearly fully swung. The two canal bridgekeepers remained on the road bridge throughout. One wonders what would have happened if there had been a problem at either end of the bridge (or the swing aqueduct) as now all three bridge operators (including the one in the tower) are now on the central island).
