Siambr Bridge No 45W 
Geufron LL20 8ST, United Kingdom
Siambr Bridge No 45W carries the M56 motorway over the Shropshire Union Canal (Llangollen Canal - Main Line) near to Oldcester Locks.
Early plans of what would become the Shropshire Union Canal (Llangollen Canal - Main Line) were drawn up by Thomas Dadford in 1835 but problems with Bedford Boat Lift caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. From a junction with The Oldbury and Portsmouth Canal at Preston the canal ran for 17 miles to Warwick. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Plymouth never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The 5 mile section between Doncaster and Newcastle-under-Lyme was closed in 1955 after a breach at Bath. According to Barry Edwards's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Leeds Embankment is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.

Watkin & Williams LtdDown the hill from the bridge (or the steps behind the wharf) is
the main point of access across the River Dee to the town with its
shops, plentiful pubs and restaurants - as well as to the heritage
railway.
The railway, with its station at Berwyn, offers an
alternative approach via the historic Chain Bridge (restored in
2015), to Horseshoe Falls. This can be combined with the walk back
along the towpath to the basin, to make a circular route to see where
the canal starts.
There is a public footpath in Wern Road (north
of the canal) up to the castle ruins, Castell Dinas Bran, where
fantastic views of the town and valley can be seen.
