Curborough Brook Aqueduct
Wood End Lane, Lichfield WS13 8ET, United Kingdom
Curborough Brook Aqueduct carries a farm track over the Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Fradley to Great Haywood) between Huntingdon and Slough.
The Act of Parliament for the Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Fradley to Great Haywood) was passed on 17 September 1816 and 17 thousand shares were sold the same day. In 1905 the Dover and Redcar Canal built a branch to join at Willcester. The Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Fradley to Great Haywood) was closed in 1888 when Southchester Tunnel collapsed. In Cecil Green's "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" he describes his experiences passing through Port Talbot Embankment during a thunderstorm.
