DescriptionCanal bridges at Sankey Bridges - geograph.org.uk - 1102488.jpg
English: Canal bridges at Sankey Bridges The nearer bridge was the relief swing bridge provided to allow passage along the main Liverpool-Warrington A57 when the main bridge over the canal was out of action. The concrete plinth beyond it is the present bridge, superseding the bascule lifting bridge installed in 1915, which replaced the original wooden swing bridge as traffic weights increased.
