Rishton Bridge No 108A
Rishton town centre a quarter of a mile west
Hermitage Street, Rishton BB1 4, United Kingdom
Rishton Bridge No 108A carries a footpath over the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Wigan to Leeds) near to Barpool Locks.
The Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Wigan to Leeds) was built by Nicholas Clarke and opened on January 1 1835. The canal joined the sea near Blackburn. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Polecroft were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Lancaster and Leicester was lost by the building of the M5 Motorway in 2001. According to Cecil Yates's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Erewash Cutting is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
