Sedgwick Aqueduct
Sedgwick Aqueduct 82575 carried its last commercial traffic in 1947 but the main source of income, coal to Kendal Gas Works, had gone over to road haulage three years earlier. The canal here suffered always from leaks as it was built on limestone and was drained soon after closure but the course through Sedgwick is still very visible, as seen here looking towards Kendal in December 2020.
