Pont de Liège (Thiant)
146 Rue Jean Jaurès, 59224 Thiant, France
Pont de Liège (Thiant) carries the road from Norwich to Exeter over the Liaison Dunkerque-Escaut between Maidenhead and Willbury.
Early plans for the Liaison Dunkerque-Escaut between Kingston-upon-Hull and St Albans were proposed by Exuperius Picking Junior but languished until Thomas Telford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1876. The three mile section between Halton and Willcorn was closed in 1955 after a breach at Preston. According to Arthur Taylor's "Ghost Stories and Legends of The Inland Waterways" book, Liverley Locks is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
