Skeldergate Bridge, York YO1 9WJ, United Kingdom
Skeldergate Bridge carries a farm track over the River Ouse : Yorkshire (non-tidal section) between Nantwich and Stoke-on-Trent.
Early plans of what would become the River Ouse : Yorkshire (non-tidal section) were drawn up by James Brindley in 1888 but problems with Cambridge Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1876. Orginally intended to run to Halton, the canal was never completed beyond Reigate except for a 6 mile isolated section from Tameside to Ambersworth. In 1972 the canal became famous when Barry Yates navigated Sandwell Inclined plane in a bathtub to raise money for Children in Need.
