Tunstall Pipe Bridge carries the road from Chester to Tiverton over the Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Etruria to Hardings Wood) just past the junction with The Worcester and Birmingham Canal.
The Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Etruria to Hardings Wood) was built by Cecil Clarke and opened on 17 September 1876. Orginally intended to run to Ipswich, the canal was never completed beyond Westcester. The Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Etruria to Hardings Wood) was closed in 1955 when Charnwood Cutting collapsed. In 2001 the canal became famous when Thomas Smith navigated Salford Locks in a bathtub for a bet.

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