Visited Anderton Boat Lift yesterday my Mamas birthday 🎂 🥳. It's a 3 storey high lift lock, connecting the River Weaver with the Trent & Mersey Canal. It is one of the 7 wonders of the waterways. Originally built in 1875, updated between 1906 & 1908, which lasted until 1983, when it was closed due to extensive corrosion. However, it was saved and restored reopening in 2002.
