Lift Bridge (Holford)
Lift Bridge (Holford) carries a farm track over the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Hatherton Canal) just past the junction with The Neath and Tennant Canal.
The Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Hatherton Canal) was built by Thomas Telford and opened on 17 September 1835. The four mile section between Thurrock and Huntingdon was closed in 1888 after a breach at Oldfield. According to William Thomas's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Manpool Tunnel is haunted by the ghost of George Hunter, a navvy, who drowned in the canal one winter night.

Wikipedia has a page about Lift Bridge
A vertical-lift bridge or just lift bridge is a type of movable bridge in which a span rises vertically while remaining parallel with the deck.
The vertical lift offers several benefits over other movable bridges such as the bascule and swing-span bridge. Generally speaking they cost less to build for longer moveable spans. The counterweights in a vertical lift are only required to be equal to the weight of the deck, whereas bascule bridge counterweights must weigh several times as much as the span being lifted. As a result, heavier materials can be used in the deck, and so this type of bridge is especially suited for heavy railroad use.
Although most vertical-lift bridges use towers, each equipped with counterweights, some use hydraulic jacks located below the deck. An example is the 52-foot (15.85 m) span bridge at St Paul Avenue in Milwaukee (see also table bridges). Another design used balance beams to lift the deck, with pivoting bascules located on the top of the lift towers. An example of this kind was built at La Salle in Illinois, United States.
The biggest disadvantage to the vertical-lift bridge (in comparison with many other designs) is the height restriction for vessels passing under it. This is a result of the deck remaining suspended above the passageway.
