A modern picture of the "top locks" canal basin on the Bridgewater canal. Gone are the working narrow-boats and barges. Pleasure craft now take their places, although not in such large numbers. A road from the new high level road bridge spans the canal, (showing again how recent changes have cut swathes through the old town.) The Waterloo public house (left) is the pub which appears in the TV comedy "Two packets of crisps and a pint of lager"
