Coat's Bridge
Early plans for the Pocklington Canal (Unnavigable Section) between Ambersford and Tiverstone were proposed by Thomas Telford but languished until Arthur Green was appointed as secretary to the board in 1888. The canal joined the sea near Castlefield. "Travels of The Perseverence" by John Clarke describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Nottingham Aqueduct.

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

A coat is a garment worn on the upper body by either gender for warmth or fashion. Coats typically have long sleeves and are open down the front, closing by means of buttons, zippers, hook-and-loop fasteners, toggles, a belt, or a combination of some of these. Other possible features include collars, shoulder straps and hoods.
