More about this scene

Congleton lies in the valley of the River Dane - we have already caught a glimpse of the river in the park. Now we move two or three miles upstream to Colley Mill Bridge. This bridge is old and narrow, and was already controlled by traffic lights when this picture was taken. It needed major repairs in the 1980s, but fortunately retained its original form. The traffic lights are still there, as are the attractive cottages, one of which was originally a corn mill.
