Stockingfield Junction Bridge

Highlight • Monument

Stockingfield Junction is a spot along the canal between Maryhill and Ruchill in Glasgow, Scotland. It first opened back in 1777, closed in 1963, and was later restored and reopened in 2022. Originally, it served as a terminus before becoming the junction for the Port Dundas branch off the main line of the Forth and Clyde Canal from 1777.

Good straights and class scenery. Roots at certain sections growing under the tarmac, which can make it a bit of a tough getting the power down. Lovely views.
