Factory Bridge No 52
Viaduct Cycleway, Newbold on Avon CV21 1ED, United Kingdom
Factory Bridge No 52 carries a farm track over the Oxford Canal (Northern Section - Main Line).
The Oxford Canal (Northern Section - Main Line) was built by Hugh Henshall and opened on January 1 1888. Expectations for manure traffic to Manfield were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the Oxford Canal (Northern Section - Main Line) were submitted to parliament in 1990, the carriage of stone from Easthampton to Polstan prevented closure. In his autobiography Peter Edwards writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s
