Swingbridge Road Bridge No 41
Swingbridge Road Bridge No 41 carries a farm track over the Grand Union Canal (Leicester Section - River Soar Navigation) a few kilometres from Arun.
The Act of Parliament for the Grand Union Canal (Leicester Section - River Soar Navigation) was passed on January 1 1782 the same day as that of The Daventry Canal. "Travels of The Implacable" by Barry Green describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Oxford Cutting.

There is a bridge here which takes a track over the canal.

The Old Chainbridge (now replaced) was called that because it had a gap through the centre where the tow rope could be passed. This made the bridge inherently unstable and it eventually collapsed about 10 - 15 years ago. Information from Bruce McKenzie, 15-7-2008
