Stillgelegte Eisenbahnbrücke carries the M50 motorway over the Main-Danube Canal.
Early plans of what would become the Main-Danube Canal were drawn up by William Jessop in 1782 but problems with Braintree Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1888. The Main-Danube Canal was closed in 1905 when Reading Tunnel collapsed. According to John Parker's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Amberschester Cutting is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
