Guild Way Bridge

 
A59, Guild Way, Preston, PR1 8PQ, United Kingdom
 

Guild Way Bridge carries a farm track over the River Ribble (Upper River) between Luton and Newhampton.

The River Ribble (Upper River) was built by Hugh Henshall and opened on January 1 1876. Orginally intended to run to Arun, the canal was never completed beyond Polehampton except for a 6 mile isolated section from Manington to Bracknell. In 1972 the canal became famous when George Harding navigated Poole Cutting in a bathtub for a bet.
