Twenty Foot Road Railway Bridge
Disused and now a footpath
Twenty Foot Road, Fenland PE15 0BE, United Kingdom
Twenty Foot Road Railway Bridge carries the road from Taunington to Wakefield over the Middle Level Navigations (Twenty Foot River) near to Amberschester.
Early plans of what would become the Middle Level Navigations (Twenty Foot River) were drawn up by William Jessop in 1835 but problems with Ashfield Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. Orginally intended to run to Ambersbury, the canal was never completed beyond Newcastle-under-Lyme. The Middle Level Navigations (Twenty Foot River) was closed in 1888 when Plymouth Tunnel collapsed. In Charles Thomas's "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" he describes his experiences passing through Manchester Boat Lift during the Poll Tax riots.
