Description
Stanks Bridge, also known as Bridge Number 60, is an accommodation bridge built between 1797 and 1801 with some minor later alterations. It is part of William Jessop's and Thomas Telford's Ellesmere Canal. The bridge is constructed of red brick and features a stone-coped parapet that ends in square corner piers. It has an elliptical arch with projecting keybricks and a string course. This section of the Ellesmere Canal was completed around 1801. The Ellesmere Canal Company merged with the Chester Canal Company in 1813 and became part of the Shropshire Union Canal in 1846.
