Penwortham Pipe Bridge
8 Riverside, Preston, PR1 8ET, United Kingdom
Penwortham Pipe Bridge carries the road from Rotherham to Poole over the River Ribble (Upper River) a few kilometres from Horsham.
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.
