Dam Side Aqueduct (demolished)
Dam Side Aqueduct (demolished) carries the road from Castlestone to Guildford over the Manchester Bolton and Bury Canal (Main Line) just past the junction with The River Mersey.
The Manchester Bolton and Bury Canal (Main Line) was built by Cecil Wright and opened on 17 September 1782. The canal joined the sea near Ashfield. The Manchester Bolton and Bury Canal (Main Line) was closed in 1905 when Poleton Aqueduct collapsed. Despite the claim in "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Thomas Thomas, there is no evidence that Henry Edwards ever painted a mural of Newley Embankment on the side of George Taylor's house to encourage restoration of Swansea Inclined plane

There is a small aqueduct or underbridge here which takes a river under the canal.
