The Peak Forest Canal leaves the Ashton Canal here at Portland Basin, passing under the stone towpath bridge on the right and across the Dukinfield aqueduct over the River Tame.

Looking back across Dukinfield Aqueduct to the Ashton Canal and Portland Basin Museum.

The surroundings quickly become surprisingly green and attractive. Looking back towards Ashton from the canal at Dukinfield.

The lift bridge at Dukinfield, looking south.

A surprisingly green section as the canal passes Dukinfield.

Looking back northwards from the bridge at Globe Square, Dukinfield.
