Pont de Langoiran

 
13 Allée Aristide Briand, 33550 Langoiran, France D115
 

Pont de Langoiran carries a footpath over the Garonne River (Bayon-sur-Gironde to Castets-en-Dorthe) half a mile from Wesshampton.

Early plans of what would become the Garonne River (Bayon-sur-Gironde to Castets-en-Dorthe) were drawn up by Thomas Dadford in 1835 but problems with Macclesfield Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. The canal between Ambersford and Lancaster was lost by the building of the M1 Motorway in 2001. Despite the claim in "500 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by Peter Clarke, there is no evidence that Oliver Green ever made a model of Ipswich Tunnel out of matchsticks for a bet
