Manchester Ship Canal's Spectacular Inland Port Heritage
The Manchester Ship Canal links Manchester with the sea and serves a vast inland industrial region within fifty miles. It opened in 1804 after seven years of construction by Daniel Adamson’s committee, cost £15 million, displaced 76,000,000 tons of earth, and now supports a dynamic dock complex at Trafford Park with granaries, elevators, warehouses, and major firms. The Barton aqueduct stands as a highlight, allowing barges and ships to traverse the canal.
