Summary[edit]

Description
English: High Bridge (No 57), Woodseaves Cutting, Shropshire Union Canal The canal at Woodseaves was cut through the sandstone without machines, and is a shallow, slow section of the canal, always prone to blockage due to landslips or fallen trees. A 2mph limit is imposed on boats, but it is difficult to exceed this by much anyway. In some places two boats cannot pass each other because the cut is so narrow. There are two high bridges, built of local stone; this is bridge No. 57. On this August afternoon at 4 o'clock it felt and smelt like early morning in October. Less than an hour later an enormous thunderstorm with torrential rain and furious winds raged for nearly 30 minutes; then... bright sun!
