The Banks of the River.

The Car Park Wall on the opposite bank has fallen in to the River, or was it pushed? We will never know.

The Medlock

The River flows past some New Trendy Flats that have been built for Town Living.

The River Medlock

The River once again is going underground beneath the road, towards Deansgate Quay there it will go under the Quay where excess water from the Bridgewater and Rochdale Canals flows down a Sink Hole in to the Medlock which is on it's way to the River Irwell.

River Medlock

The River here goes underground and under Deansgate Quay. At one time it did Flow in to The Deansgate Quay, but it was found to be too Dirty. Especially at Flood Times.

Warehouses.

Around the Wharfs and Warehouses these Picturesque Bridges have been built across the canals. Meanwhile the River Medlock runs underneath them all.

Vegetables.

Above the River Medlock there are the Canal Docking Wharfs. The Tunnels you can see were built to unload Vegetables Underground to Cool Storage Places from Barges. There was a thriving market in Manchester for them. The Country Growers took advantages of cheap transport that the canals gave them.

The Potato Wharf

These Ware Houses are on the Castle Field Wharfs and were used to store Raw Cotton as it came up Manchester Ship Canal. The Cotton was then sold in The Manchester Cotton Exchange.
