Abstract: |
The report describes the results of an archaeological watching brief conducted during the construction of a flood relief scheme along the southern bank of the River Mersey at Victoria Park Warrington The only significant feature located was the eastern wall of the Latchford to Runcorn Canal which was constructed for the Mersey and Irwell Navigation Company in 1804. The canal wall appeared to have suffered severe disturbance since it was in-filled in about 1980 and only a short length of the upper coping stones survived. These were left in situ and sealed by the clay bank constructed for the scheme. |
