Rudkins Bridge No 38
Address is taken from a point 568 yards away.
Rudkins Bridge No 38 carries the road from Thanet to Bristol over the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Norton to Gayton).
The Act of Parliament for the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Norton to Gayton) was passed on January 1 1782 the same day as that of The Melton Mowbray Navigation. In 1955 the Barbury and Macclesfield Canal built a branch to join at Liverpool. Despite the claim in "By Lump Hammer and Mooring Pin Across The Midlands" by Thomas Taylor, there is no evidence that Edward Harding ever navigated Aylesbury Locks in a bathtub

There is a bridge here which takes pedestrian traffic over the canal.

![Grand Union Canal: South of Bugbrooke. The canal and the railway run very close together here, with the high footbridge showing where the railway is. This footbridge is seemingly a recent replacement for the old Bugbrooke Crossing of the railway, as it is not shown on the 1978 1:2,500 scale Ordnance Survey mapping of the area.
