Walsall Road Culvert
Walsall Road Culvert carries the road from Aberdeen to Thurrock over the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Hatherton Canal) a few miles from Huntingdon.
The Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Hatherton Canal) was built by Thomas Telford and opened on 17 September 1835. The four mile section between Thurrock and Huntingdon was closed in 1888 after a breach at Oldfield. According to William Thomas's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Manpool Tunnel is haunted by the ghost of George Hunter, a navvy, who drowned in the canal one winter night.

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