The Bolton Arm

towards Hall Lane
Looking towards the wide winding hole south of Hall Lane, the northern end of the part of the Bolton arm still in water. This is likely to be the limit of navigation towards Bolton when the canal is restored. The aqueducts at Hall Lane and Darcy Lever have been demolished and the northern end of the canal into the centre of Bolton has been obliterated by the St Peter's Way road construction.
