More about this scene
At this time Warburton was a small village on the south bank of the Mersey, five miles west of Altrincham and twelve miles from Manchester. A toll bridge was erected 1864-65 to connect the village with Lancashire. The original toll bridge still stands over the old course of the Mersey. The bridge in our picture was erected when the river was diverted to form part of the Ship Canal in 1894.
