The St Helens canal is intact in this photo but here the canal was later breached. Sankey Brook was re-routed along the northern section, leaving the canal here to return to it's original course. The western arm is now dry as far as Bewsey Lock except during exceptional floods.

Alder Lane now crosses the railway line and Sankey Navigation here. I was told that the road change was at the request of the USAF.
