Wolverhampton's Listed Buildings

Aldersley Bridge

Staffs and Worcs Canal



Listing: 1770s. James Brindley with S. Simcock and T. Dadford, engineers.

Comment: Not to be confused with Aldersley Junction Bridge. Come to that, you also ought not to confuse Aldersley Junction (which is the junction between the BCN and the Staffs & Worcs) with Autherley Junction (which is the junction between the Staffs & Worcs and the Shroppie Cut). The fact that they are all within a mile of each other does not help. And what makes it worse is that when these canals were built both names were used, interchangeably, for both junctions.
