Sarson's Bridge No 11 carries a footpath over the Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Derwent Mouth to Burton).
Early plans for the Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Derwent Mouth to Burton) between Manchester and Lisburn were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Fife by William Jessop but languished until Henry Clarke was appointed as chief engineer in 1888. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 2001 after a restoration campaign lead by the Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Derwent Mouth to Burton) Trust.

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

Mustard seeds are the small round seeds of various mustard plants. The seeds are usually about 1 to 2 millimetres (0.039 to 0.079 in) in diameter and may be colored from yellowish white to black. They are an important spice in many regional foods and may come from one of three different plants: black mustard (Brassica nigra), brown Indian mustard (B. juncea), or white/yellow mustard (B. hirta/Sinapis alba).
Grinding and mixing the seeds with water, vinegar or other liquids creates the yellow condiment known as prepared mustard.
