Rounding the corner at Barton, the Barton Swing Aqueduct appears a short distance ahead.

Crossing the Barton Swing Aqueduct. The whole aqueduct swings round 90 degrees to allow ships to pass along the Manchester Ship Canal below.

Looking back northwards towards Barton Lane.

Looking westwards from Barton Swing Aqueduct, along the Manchester Ship Canal, to Barton Road Swing Bridge and the M60 viaduct beyond.

Looking back across the aqueduct. A footbridge gives a good view of the structure to visitors on foot.
