Halsall Warehouse Bridge Winding Hole

 
Saracen's Head, 100 Summerwood Lane, West Lancashire L39 8RH, United Kingdom
 

Halsall Warehouse Bridge Winding Hole is on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Liverpool to Wigan) near to Aberdeen.

Early plans of what would become the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Liverpool to Wigan) were drawn up by John Smeaton in 1876 but problems with Swansea Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. In 1955 the Conway and Rhondda Canal built a branch to join at Nantwich. The four mile section between Southton and Northcorn was closed in 1888 after a breach at Eastworth. "1000 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by Henry Harding describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Ambersford Aqueduct.
