Description
From My canal boat trip from Little Venice to Camden Lock on the Regent's Canal. An explosion at Macclesfield Bridge of 1874 was a famous incident in the canal's history, in which a gunpowder barge blew up, destroying the bridge and sending debris in all directions. Scars are still visibe in the metalwork today.
My time in the UK, April/May 2003.
Scanned from negative. Thanks for viewing and your comments,
