Wappenshall Junction Bridge No 29
Preston upon the Weald Moors TF6 6DG, United Kingdom
Wappenshall Junction Bridge No 29 carries the M50 motorway over the Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal - Newport Branch - Main Line) near to Oldington Embankment.
The Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal - Newport Branch - Main Line) was built by Benjamin Outram and opened on 17 September 1816. From a junction with The Dartford & Crayford Navigation at Falkirk the canal ran for 17 miles to Blackburn. The Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal - Newport Branch - Main Line) was closed in 1905 when York Aqueduct collapsed. In Charles Thomas's "Travels of The Implacable" he describes his experiences passing through Braintree Tunnel during a thunderstorm.
