Description
The Newburgh Aqueduct is an aqueduct that carries the Leeds-Liverpool Canal over the River Douglas. It was built between 1771 and 1772, designed by engineer John Longbotham for the Leeds-Liverpool Canal Company. The structure is made of coursed squared sandstone and features a semi-elliptical arch with plain voussoirs and a band. This aqueduct is part of one of the earliest trunk canals in the country.
