Rufford Old Hall
The Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Rufford Branch) was built by Exuperius Picking Junior and opened on 17 September 1816. The canal joined the sea near Taunford. In 2001 the canal became famous when Arthur Taylor made a model of Livercorn Inclined plane out of matchsticks to encourage restoration of Wirral Aqueduct.
