An Inglis Bridge, this span is worth pausing by and taking a closer look at. Designed by Charles Edward Inglis in the very early 1900s, this style of bridge was designed to be portable for use during wartime by the military. The idea was to make it as simply as possible and enable it to be constructed quickly – in an afternoon no less.

While there are other Inglis Bridges around, this one over the Basingstoke Canal is the only Inglis Pyramid Bridge in the world.

Ash Aqueduct

Highlight • Bridge

Thousands of motorists drive underneath this aqueduct on the A331 without having any idea at all that a canal is suspended above their heads.

The canal was opened in 1995 and the waterway long pre-dates the A road beneath it. The original plan was to drop the canal down using locks, but the decision was eventually made to keep the canal level and build the road underneath, requiring the construction of the aqueduct.

To enjoy this fantastic piece of engineering, walk or ride alongside the canal on the towpath as it passes on its merry way, uninterrupted by the road underneath.

The modern metal structure of Eelmoor Bridge replaced a former brick one. Offers lovely views along the Basingstoke Canal and down to Eelmoor Flash - a great place to spot dragonflies and damselflies.
