SirExton ol' chum...the pic was taken just south of the Glasson Branch Canal turn-off on the Lancaster Canal that seems to end at Preston as far as I can tell and then connects with Savick Brook, then onto River Ribble maybe heading toward Liverpool...maybe? The pic was taken from the otherside of this bridge in the attached pic...Cheers toya

I have been struggling to find pictures I took when last in Chorley of the Leeds to Liverpool Canal at Botany Bay last October when I was last there. The stilness of the water surface was breath taking!! Thanks for sharing Toya
