Corbett’s Bridge (75) with boy and donkey

Corbett's Bridge is just north of Queens Head. Pairs of donkeys were often used to haul boats on the Welsh Branch of the Shropshire Union Canal. On the extreme left of the picture the position of the towline and the possible edge of an ear hint at the presence of a second donkey. Photographed in 1895 by Rodolph de Salis.
