Meccano Bridge

Someone seems to have left their arm behind on top of the bridge. Spooky. Maybe it was the "shadowy figure" on the previous shot now in the comments box below. Saying that, they looked 'armless enough....

 

The Meccano Bridge at the fantastically named Nob End on the Manchester, Bolton & Bury Canal. Theres no actual water below the bridge due to a breach that took place in the 1930s which was never repaired, although there is water in other sections, but its mainly not navigable.

 

I really like this bridge over the disused canal. There are matching picnic tables and a bench.

I suppose it could go in my lettering and signs albums too due to the Bridge 50 sign, but its not a major feature of the scene.
