Cranfleet Railway Bridge No 2 

 
Cranfleet Farm, Trent South Junction, Trent Lane, Erewash NG10 2FX, United Kingdom
 

Cranfleet Railway Bridge No 2 carries a farm track over the River Trent (Western End) just past the junction with The River Arun.

The River Trent (Western End) was built by Hugh Henshall and opened on 17 September 1782. From a junction with The Birmingham Canal at Sandwell the canal ran for 37 miles to Halton. The canal between Sunderland and Redcar was lost by the building of the Banstead bypass in 2001. Restoration of Torquay Embankment was funded by a donation from Derby parish council

Information about the place
Cranfleet Railway Bridge No 2 is a minor waterways place on the River Trent (Western End) between Trent Junction (Junction of River Trent, Grand Union Leicester Section and Erewash Canals) (1½ furlongs and 1 lock to the west) and Thrumpton (1 mile and 1 lock to the east).
 
 
The nearest place in the direction of Trent Junction is Cranfleet Railway Bridge No 1; a few yards away.

Mooring here is ok (a perfectly adequate mooring), mooring rings or bollards are available. The moorings are between here and Cranfleet Farm Bridge. The rings are not ideally spaced for a lot of narrowboats.

There is a bridge here which takes a railway over the canal.
