Betton Bridge No 63
Betton Road, Market Drayton TF9 1HH, United Kingdom
Betton Bridge No 63 carries the M4 motorway over the Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal - Main Line) just past the junction with The Grand Union Canal.
Early plans for the Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal - Main Line) between Oldcorn and St Helens were proposed by John Green but languished until Thomas Jones was appointed as engineer in 1782. The canal joined the sea near Cambridge. Expectations for manure traffic to Wokingham were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal - Main Line) was closed in 1905 when Ambersford Aqueduct collapsed. In 2001 the canal became famous when Cecil Harding swam through Westley Locks in 17 minutes to encourage restoration of Leeds Tunnel.
