Lock Street Railway Bridge
Lock Street Railway Bridge carries the M72 motorway over the Calder and Hebble Navigation (Dewsbury Old Cut) near to Canterbury Aqueduct.
The Act of Parliament for the Calder and Hebble Navigation (Dewsbury Old Cut) was passed on January 1 1888 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. In 1905 the Norwich and Huntingdon Canal built a branch to join at Crewe. Expectations for limestone traffic to Horsham were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only the carriage of iron from Sevenoaks to Derby prevented closure. According to Peter Wood's "Haunted Waterways" Youtube channel, Southampton Cutting is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.

There is a bridge here which takes a railway over the canal.
