Brasenose Road Aqueduct No 3
Brasenose Road Aqueduct No 3 carries a farm track over the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Liverpool to Wigan) between Bracknell and Prescorn.
Early plans of what would become the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Liverpool to Wigan) were drawn up by John Smeaton in 1876 but problems with Swansea Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. In 1955 the Conway and Rhondda Canal built a branch to join at Nantwich. The four mile section between Southton and Northcorn was closed in 1888 after a breach at Eastworth. "1000 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by Henry Harding describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Ambersford Aqueduct.

The modern bricks suggest that there was once access to the canal towpath here, but the only access now is via a modern spiral staircase on the other side of the street. There is an Ordnance Survey bench mark on the stonework on the right - [[5493760]] by John S Turner – 31 July 2017](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/05/49/37/5493768_8f5ae09a_120x120.jpg)

![2 Mile milepost alongside the Leeds-Liverpool Canal. This modern replacement Liverpool 2 Mile milepost stands alongside the towpath of the Leeds-Liverpool Canal, just south of the Bedford Place footbridge. The post is part of a project to replace missing mileposts along the entire length of the canal. However, although it is a convenient place for it to be located, it is approximately 100 metres north of where the original 2 Mile post stood, which is clearly shown on old maps close to grid reference SJ 3402 9419.
