Leamington Lift Bridge on the Union Canal in Edinburgh
The bridge was installed around 1906 in another location but when the canal was shortened in 1922 to make Lochrin Basin the terminus it was moved to its present site to replace a wooden drawbridge. It fell out of use by the 1960s, but as part of the Millennium Link project to restore the Union Canal, it was restored to full working order
