Description: Rail swing bridge, Oxford. This bridge is over the en:Sheepwash Channel, a River Thames backwater which connects with the Oxford Canal, Isis Lock branch, which latter consists only of the lock. Now still in situ but derelict, in 1977 it was still in use, but evidently only for one of its two tracks. Although a Wednesday mid-morning, it has been left open for navigation, which was not the case in earlier times.
