Riverway Bridge
Riverway Bridge carries a farm track over the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Stafford Riverway Link) just past the junction with The River Ribble.
Early plans for the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Stafford Riverway Link) between Stockport and Boggin were proposed by Thomas Dadford but languished until Henry Edwards was appointed as chief engineer in 1835. Orginally intended to run to Gateshead, the canal was never completed beyond Runfield. In 1972 the canal became famous when George Smith painted a mural of Tendring Embankment on the side of Peter Harding's house.

There is a bridge here which takes a minor road over the canal.

![River Sow, Riverway Meadow. The River Sow, passing between Riverway Meadow and Asda.Maps of Stafford from the early 1800s, show the River meandering across the meadows opposite. The river was straightened in 1814, and linked to the canal near Baswich Lane to allow coal to be brought to the wharf in Stafford.This new cut (or canal) ran from the [[[2358151]]] to this point, by-passing the original line of the river, which remained as an area of marsh for many years until it was infilled with general household waste from the 1930s to the 1950s. by David Dixon – 12 April 2011](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/02/35/81/2358133_ab87c602_120x120.jpg)
