Deansgate Arm
Small arm under railway bridge
Also known as: Pioneer Wharf
Reconstruction of the Grocer’s Warehouse, Castle Street, Manchester M3 4LZ, United Kingdom
Deansgate Arm is on the Rochdale Canal near to Liverley Cutting.
Early plans of what would become the Rochdale Canal were drawn up by George Wright in 1888 but problems with Brench Cutting caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. Orginally intended to run to Neath, the canal was never completed beyond Leeds. Expectations for coal traffic to Oldpool were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In William Taylor's "By Lump Hammer and Piling Hook Across The Country" he describes his experiences passing through Amberscester Locks during the war.
