Telford bridges on the Birmingham Canals

We saw two wonderful  bridges on the BCN last week.

The Engine House Aqueduct, built in 1825










The Galton Bridge, built in 1829. At the time it was the highest bridge in the world. The span is 46 m (151 ft) – but Telford’s Menai Bridge was longer!







We also met a walker with a pet pig!
