Geocache Description:

The first of a set of 7 caches tracing the route of the old Bradford Canal

The Bradford Canal ran for 3 miles southwards from the Leeds and Liverpool Canal at Shipley to the centre of Bradford, It had 10 locks, arranged as one 3-rise staircase, 3 2-rise staircases and one single-rise lock. The Bradford Canal closed to navigation in 1922. The former junction with the Bradford Canal was immediately behind the bridge, which was built to enable boat horses to cross from the Leeds and Liverpool towpath to that of the Bradford Canal.



There are proposals afoot to reopen the canal into Bradford - "The Channel" However whether this even happens remains to be seen!

Bring a Pen - There are few rules in the game. But one rule is that you need to sign the logbook. Always pack a pen to make sure you're ready to sign your Geocaching username, the date, and leave a note.
