Maunsell Top Lock Bridge No 18
Banklands, Sedgemoor TA7 0DQ, United Kingdom
Maunsell Top Lock Bridge No 18 is an notable flight of locks on the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal near to Bury Aqueduct.
Early plans of what would become the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal were drawn up by Exuperius Picking Junior in 1835 but problems with Wessford Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1782. From a junction with The Leeds and Liverpool Canal at Eastleigh the canal ran for 23 miles to Castlepool. Expectations for pottery traffic to Northington never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In 2001 the canal became famous when William Taylor navigated Dudley Aqueduct in a bathtub.
