- Today we're in Burnley, in the north of England, to take a walk along the Leeds & Liverpool canal to have a look at Turf Moor, the home of Burnley F.C. Once we've done that we'll head into the town centre to have a look around before returning to the canal to wrap up. As part of this series we've been set a task to buy the cheapest thing at each football club shop so we'll update on that at the end of the video. Come and join us.

Last two I had were rubbish!
@@user-ft1sw2jr4n If Burnley express sees your comment it'll be all over the news 👀
The business has changed hands. I know someone who works there. I won't eat them anymore.
Good to see you both again.
Very nice walk, I wonder what would happen if a tall vehicle struck that bridge, causing the canal to drain, do they have a sluce gate on both ends of the bridge, I wonder.
Cheers from San Diego
Probably not. It'd probably end up draining the whole section from the lock above to the lock below, although I do wonder if that may have been what that crane was for, dropping stop planks into the canal where it narrows at the bridge. Interestingly I did come across some photos from 1967 when the bridge sprung a leak: www.bcthic.org/Articles/The_Culvert-Leeds_Liverpool_Canal_Aqueduct#div778

Thanks for the link Simon, very interesting article on that very subject.
In the section "description of works to be done " line 12, they describe a feature, built into both ends to allow planks to be dropped in order to drain the bridge for maintenance. so that crane was probably used to load the planks onto a barge to drop the planks in place.
They used 3/8" (~10mm) mild steel with 1/8" of Tar coating, very nice.
Just fascinating that you found this article, and that photo of the original bridge.
Cheers
Well I guess they only need to block that one end, unless the bridge suffered catastrophic damage. As you said, it would drain out through the lower lock.
Cheers
always called the river like Brum you know the car... but with an N.
I didn't look it up so you may well be right :)
@@SimonPain I'm from Burnley. :) love the videos though.
