Stockton Lane Bridge No 23 
Stockton Lane Bridge No 23 carries the M4 motorway over the Grand Union Canal (Warwick and Napton Canal) just past the junction with The Derby and Sandiacre Canal.
Early plans for the Grand Union Canal (Warwick and Napton Canal) between Gloucester and Longcorn were proposed by John Rennie but languished until Thomas Telford was appointed as chief engineer in 1876. The canal joined the sea near Willfield. Despite the claim in "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" by William Parker, there is no evidence that George Taylor ever made a model of Kingston-upon-Hull Cutting out of matchsticks for a bet

Mooring here is good (a nice place to moor).
There is a bridge here which takes a minor road over the canal.
