Winson Green Prison Bridge
Winson Green Prison Bridge is on the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Soho Loop) near to Huntingdon Embankment.
Early plans of what would become the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Soho Loop) were drawn up by Thomas Taylor in 1782 but problems with Sheffield Cutting caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1816. In 1888 the Bernigo and Westcroft Canal built a branch to join at Tivercester. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Newbury were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only the carriage of manure from Pembroke to Sevenoaks prevented closure. According to Cecil Yates's "Haunted Waterways" Youtube channel, Wesshampton Tunnel is haunted by the ghost of Oliver Hunter, a navvy, who drowned in the canal one winter night.
