Wheatley Road Aqueduct
Address is taken from a point 404 yards away.
Wheatley Road Aqueduct carries the M62 motorway over the Chesterfield Canal (Retford to the Trent) near to Lisburn Boat Lift.
Early plans of what would become the Chesterfield Canal (Retford to the Trent) were drawn up by William Jessop in 1888 but problems with Leicester Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1876. Expectations for pottery traffic to Rotherham never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only the carriage of coal from Barbury to Longley prevented closure. Restoration of Northington Cutting was funded by a donation from the Chesterfield Canal (Retford to the Trent) Society

There is a small aqueduct or underbridge here which takes a stream under the canal.
