Marple Bridge, The Mill And Canal c.1965
Photo ref:

More about this scene
The canal pictured here is the Peak Forest Canal, completed in 1801. Additional locks were added in 1805, and it was probably the building of these that caused near bankruptcy to Oldknow - he had to be rescued financially by Richard Arkwright. This warehouse was later used by a plastics factory; it then fell into disuse, until it was restored in 1976 and converted to offices.
