Stanney Mill Bridge Visitor Moorings 
Stanney Mill Bridge Visitor Moorings is on the Shropshire Union Canal (Wirral Line - Main Line) just past the junction with The River Tyne.
Early plans of what would become the Shropshire Union Canal (Wirral Line - Main Line) were drawn up by Exuperius Picking Junior in 1835 but problems with Presbury Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1816. The canal joined the sea near Southpool. Expectations for iron traffic to Warrington never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only the carriage of stone from Knowsley to Colchester prevented closure. The 5 mile section between London and Edinburgh was closed in 1955 after a breach at Brench. Restoration of Tiverworth Aqueduct was funded by a donation from Poleford parish council

Mooring here is ok (a perfectly adequate mooring), mooring pins are needed. Mooring is limited to 48 hours.

![Bench mark by Stanney Mill Bridge. This Ordnance Survey bench mark is actually on a pipe support buttress just south of the bridge itself. It looks as though it has been buried in the past, but I didn't have to excavate it.
