Title
Fallingroyd Bridge, Hebden Bridge - ALC08234
Description
The tram tracks can be clearly seen in the photograph of Fallingroyd Bridge which takes the road over the Rochdale Canal. This bridge was an accident blackspot and was demolished to be replaced by a culverted section of the canal, which allowed some of the bends in the road to be taken out. Later when the Rochdale Canal was being restored the culvert was replaced by a tunnel to allow canal traffic to flow. The saw mill which became Maud’s Clog Sole factory can be seen on the left, and the lady standing on the bridge is believed to be Alice Longstaff.
