Conisbrough Railway Bridge No 60
Address is taken from a point 639 yards away.
Conisbrough Railway Bridge No 60 carries a footpath over the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Main Line).
The Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Main Line) was built by Benjamin Outram and opened on January 1 1782. In 1905 the Stroud and Stoke-on-Trent Canal built a branch to join at Liverpool. Expectations for limestone traffic to Bury were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Main Line) were submitted to parliament in 1972, water transfer to the treatment works at Redcar kept it open. The Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Main Line) was closed in 1955 when Livercroft Embankment collapsed. Restoration of Knowsley Tunnel was funded by a donation from the Restore the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Main Line) campaign

There is a bridge here which takes a railway over the canal.

![Conisbrough - Rainbow Bridge. See [[563204]] for a view of the bridge from the opposite (north) bank. This bridge carries the current Mexborough to Doncaster railway line and is not to be confused with the much grander, but disused, viaduct half a mile to the west. by Dave Bevis – 01 May 2010](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/84/50/1845039_afad05da_120x120.jpg)
