Throstle Nest


Throstle Nest Turnover Bridge on the Bridgewater Canal at Old Trafford, half a mile east of Manchester United's football stadium. The towpath changes sides here. Throstle Nest Lock was situated a short distance to the north on the River Irwell, but was demolished with the construction of the Manchester Ship Canal.
