Open Sesame!

Barton-upon-Irwell, Gtr Manchester

 

The only time I've ever seen these bridges in the open position. Barton Swing Aqueduct (left) - the only swing aqueduct in the world and Barton Road Swing Bridge (right) - there's quite a few of these but not as a pair. And the control tower sat nicely between the two.
