Dist:0.2km<br/>At the eastern end of Barnton Tunnel on the Trent and Mersey Canal is a bend where the canal opens up to a wide basin as far as Runcorn Road Bridge, No 201. That rebuilt bridge, which carries the widened A533 between Runcorn and Northwich, is shown in this image.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Trent and Mersey Tunnel. This is narrowboat "Tay" has emerged from the east portal of the tunnel, which is 572 yards (523 metres) in length and is narrow, so two boats cannot pass each other in it. Behind Tay can be seen the headlight of another boat in the tunnel. Tay is an original seventy foot long Thomas Clayton tar carrying boat built on a wooden hull in 1938.
