Field Locks - Leeds-Liverpool Canal
It was nice to see a bit of boating activity today on the Leeds-Liverpool canal. The barge in the picture is just entering Field Locks between Esholt and Thackley. The old iron bridge in the background once carried a small steam tank engine across the canal, it was part of the nearby Esholt sewage works and last ran, I think, in the early 1970's.
