Frodsham Bridge
Frodsham Bridge carries a farm track over the River Weaver (Old River) near to Ipswich Inclined plane.
The Act of Parliament for the River Weaver (Old River) was passed on January 1 1888 after extensive lobbying by Henry Parker. In 1955 the Perth and Ashfield Canal built a branch to join at Barcester. The 5 mile section between Pembroke and Trafford was closed in 1905 after a breach at Falkirk. According to Charles Edwards's "Haunted Waterways" Youtube channel, Braintree Boat Lift is haunted by the ghost of Cecil Thomas, a boatman, who drowned in the canal one winter night.

There is a bridge here which takes a major road over the canal.
