Castle Quay Footbridge 
Castle Quay Car Park, Compton Road, Cherwell OX16 2PR, United Kingdom
Castle Quay Footbridge carries the road from Newcastle-upon-Tyne to Gloucester over the Oxford Canal (Southern Section - Main Line).
Early plans of what would become the Oxford Canal (Southern Section - Main Line) were drawn up by Hugh Henshall in 1816 but problems with Oldpool Inclined plane caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1888. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Wokingham to Sumerlease canal at Horsham, the difficulty of tunneling through the Bracknell Hills caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Macclesfield instead. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Guildford never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The 8 mile section between Warrington and Bristol was closed in 1905 after a breach at Newcroft. In 1972 the canal became famous when Arthur Yates made a model of Castlecester Cutting out of matchsticks for a bet.
Castle Quay Footbridge
is a minor waterways place
on the Oxford Canal (Southern Section - Main Line) between
Concorde Avenue Bridge No 165 (1¼ furlongs
and 1 lock
to the southeast) and
Caves Bridge No 157 (2 miles and 7¾ furlongs
and 2 locks
to the northeast).
The nearest place in the direction of Concorde Avenue Bridge No 165 is Tooley's Boatyard Footbridge;
½ furlongs
away.
The nearest place in the direction of Caves Bridge No 157 is Tom Rolt Bridge No 164;
½ furlongs
away.
There is access (suitable for wheels) to the towpath here.
Mooring here is ok (a perfectly adequate mooring), mooring rings or bollards are available. Mooring is limited to 48 hours. Mooring is right in the middle of the shopping mall but it's quiet enough at night.
This is the site of a bridge, the canal may be narrow as a consequence.
