Now this one has featured before and will do so again.
We are on that stretch of the Rochdale Canal by the Deansgate Tunnel.
There will be plenty of people who like me will remember when the canal was a neglected and almost forgotten waterway with half sunken boats testifying to that neglect.
I have walked up and down it, seen its restoration along with the coming of those bars under the railway arches and can remember the steam that escaped from the lagged pipes a little further back at Oxford Road.
Location; the Rochdale Canal, Manchester
