View east from Marsh Lane to Leeds-Liverpool Canal, 10 January 1995

View east from Marsh Lane to Leeds-Liverpool Canal (see all photos of the same view)

The Ringways Map is here

The wait is over! The full map of the Ringways, London’s unbuilt urban motorway network, is now online. Not even the system's planners had anything like this.
