Marple Locks
This photograph was taken in about 1962 and shows one of the deep locks of the flight at Marple. At that time the canal was more or less derelict, how good it is to see it now fully restored and in use.

Please excuse the poor quality of the image which was scanned from an original negative and cleaned up in Photoshop.
