Peak Forest Canal in Winter


Yet another view of the Peak Forest Canal North of the Manchester Road Bridge.

The willow tree on the right is all bare, whilst on the left, the construction of new housing on the old Automasters site continues apace.

Beyond the shelter of the bridge, thick ice covers the surface of the canal.

Up ahead the canal bends West towards the bridge under the M67. An abandoned supermarket shopping trolley stands waiting for the ice to melt before it sinks.

You can see the trolley more closely on Hyde DP Xtra.

It would indeed by nice if life could be lived according to the seasons.

Please have a wonderful Wednesday.
