    Not sure how easily it is to access these days, but there's a workers walkway underneath the bridge that goes the entire length of viaduct. We used to dick around on there when we were kids and I'd invariably shit my kecks.

    to be fair-- all retailers prohibit filming.. due to ptice sensitivities...look at aldi..lidl leaflets..some items have no price on them,,,bcus they wait until their compeptitor prices theirs,& then they will reduce their price to b the cheaper....its called Live Price Scanning... \This is why they prohibit filming,,,they are scared stiff of competition knowing each live price change!!!

    The sad thing is that the 1792 Aqueduct, has been damaged. When cable TV came along the contractors thought it was just a bridge. When they laid their cables they damaged the clay membrane that kept the water in the canal. This now means the whole bridge is being damaged by the ingress of water causing the stonework to crumble.

    Just to correct one or two inaccuracies. Riding through Ouzel Valley Park you are riding along the Ouzel, not the Ouse (which flows along the city's northern boundary.) Also you rode through Woughton on the Green...that is "Woofton", not Roar-ton"

    6:29 your "railway bridge" is the top of the sluice gate mechanism. Zero to do with railways or bridges. There was never a plaque to say "what was What". You are stood in front of the double sluice gates which are raised or lowered to regulate the flow of the Ship Canal. When it floods, go back to that spot and look down towards the viaduct. The water will be boiling out of the sluice gates to stop the higher level from flooding. They used to let foot passengers stay on the bridge while it swung. We used to tie a rope swing from the highest beam at 12:29......near the very top. Nobody cared. They were the days!

    @@stevesmonumentaladventure No problem. Sorry if I came across like I didn't enjoy your work..... . Great video about my favourite places in the world! I want my ashes scattered from the long pier towards the sea...best wishes and take care. Bonus fact: the whole canal mechanical systems like lock gates, swing bridges etc worked on a water pressure system, fed by accumulator towers using water from the canal to power everything...the towers in Warrington are all gone now. I think the one at Barton is still there?
