Queens Road Bridge.
Bridge over the canal at Clayton.
Bridge now over the motorway at Clayton.
Rising Bridge Is there one actually there ?
Hyndburn Bridge. (Oh no !! will it soon be Accrington and District Bridge, but does run over the river).

Gosh, apart from smallish ones that run over the canal and railway,I'm now stumped. !

Sure we can dig up history on all the above . have been threads on some of them if you search. i.e. talked plenty about Bull Bridge.
I remember quite a few along the canal on my old cross country route. Especially the one furthest from the start 'cause I was always shattered by the time I got there and I knew I had the same distance to run again as I had just ran.
