Information about the place
Appley Bridge No 42 is a major waterways place on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Liverpool to Wigan) between Appley Locks (eastern entrance) (Eastern entrance to old two lock route) (2¼ furlongs to the west) and Wigan Pier (5 miles and 3 locks to the southeast).
 
 
The nearest place in the direction of Wigan Pier is Appley Bridge Winding Hole; 1 furlong away.

This is a pinch point. The normal maximum dimensions for a boat on this waterway are 72 feet long, 14 feet and 11 inches wide, 8 feet and 4 inches high and 4 feet and 3 inches deep, but to pass through here the maximum dimensions are 8 feet and 5 inches high.

There may be access to the towpath here.

Mooring here is tolerable (it's just about possible if really necessary).

There is a bridge here which takes a minor road over the canal.
