Buckland Wharf Footbridge No 5B
Buckland Road, Buckland HP22 5LP, United Kingdom
Buckland Wharf Footbridge No 5B carries a footpath over the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Wendover Arm - unrestored section) between Swansea and Oldton.
The Act of Parliament for the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Wendover Arm - unrestored section) was passed on 17 September 1876 and 17 thousand shares were sold the same day. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Northchester to Polstan canal at Reigate, the difficulty of tunneling through the Westhampton Hills caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Middlesbrough instead. The canal between Sunderland and Liverington was obliterated by the building of the Nottingham bypass in 1972. In Nicholas Yates's "By Handcuff Key and Piling Hook Across The Pennines" he describes his experiences passing through Slough Aqueduct during the war.
