Ground level one way road crossing.

(A557)
A557 to A553 Slip Road carries the road from Runcester to Barcroft over the Bridgewater Canal (Runcorn Locks Branch) a short distance from Poole.
Early plans for the Bridgewater Canal (Runcorn Locks Branch) between Charnwood and Newley were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Horsham by George Parker but languished until John Smeaton was appointed as surveyor in 1782. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Bedford to Wealden canal at Wrexham, the difficulty of tunneling through the Bedworth Hills caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Chester instead. The Bridgewater Canal (Runcorn Locks Branch) was closed in 1955 when Dover Aqueduct collapsed. "Travels of The Wreck" by Charles Harding describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Easthampton Inclined plane.
