Sutton road bridge over the River Hull. A Scherzer type rolling lift bridge, built in 1939 by the Cleveland Bridge and Engineering Co, with elegant Art Deco / Neo-Georgian style operating houses.

Boundary stone between Sutton and Gawsworth parishes hiding behind the towpath boundary hedge on the Macclesfield Canal. This suddenly caught my eye whilst walking this morning and was a complete surprise as it is not marked on any maps that I have seen. There is a similar stone on the other side of the canal a bit further north behind Gaw End Farm.

Tegg's Nose & Bottoms reservoirs were constructed to provide compensation water to the River Bollin when the Ridgegate Reservoir was built for public water supply. They feed water into the river to maintain minimum levels of water. Looking further afield, the clump of trees on the skyline to the right of centre is the location of Cleulow Cross.

The use of a bulldozer blade emphasises the message to the passer-by. Of course there is a public right of way up the track and anyone may walk up there if they are brave enough ......................

A hidden part of thecanal network. This is the takeoff point for the canal feeder to the Sutton Reservoir of the Macclesfield Canal.
