A couple of pictures taken on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. These are very close to the canal’s eastern end where it joins the River Aire in Leeds city centre just below the railway station.

The canal was originally conceived in the 18th century, with construction beginning in 1770 and being completed forty-six years later (although it was subsequently extended in 1822). It runs for 127 miles and has 91 locks on it’s main line.

The second photo shows westbound rail tracks crossing the canal just after they leave Leeds railway station.
