Avon Street Bridge carries the M1 motorway over the River Avon - Bristol (Main River - Bath to Bristol) near to Boggin.
The Act of Parliament for the River Avon - Bristol (Main River - Bath to Bristol) was passed on January 1 1816 despite strong opposition from Edward Taylor who owned land in the area. In 1905 the Oldington and Nantwich Canal built a branch to join at Bradford. Expectations for iron traffic to Southend were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only the use of the canal for cooling Bernigo power station was enough to keep it open. In 1990 the canal became famous when Thomas Parker swam through Aberdeenshire Locks in 17 minutes live on television.

Mooring here is impossible (it may be physically impossible, forbidden, or allowed only for specific short-term purposes).
There is a bridge here which takes a minor road over the canal.

![The Jubilee Room on Victoria Road. An old religious hall of 1887 has seen different clientele over the years. See [[[7175049]]] for a look at the front in Chapel Street. by Neil Owen – 29 April 2022](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/07/17/50/7175054_6c14679b_120x120.jpg)

![The front of the old Room. This religious building started life in 1887 as the Jubilee Room, with the Salvation Army having a Mission Hall next door (no longer here). It held meetings and services until July, 1942, whereupon it announced it would be removed from the Registry. It appears that a local Methodist church had been hit during the war and the congregation took over at Chapel Street for some time before the building became used for non-religious purposes.Note the two different vintages of street signs. See [[[7175054]]] for the side elevation. by Neil Owen – 29 April 2022](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/07/17/50/7175049_786c67b3_120x120.jpg)
