As part of the work to restore Worsley Delph a series of specially-crafted sculptural features have been installed to help reveal the site's rich and multi-layered heritage.

From a copy of the original Act of Parliament from 1659 that set the whole canal system in motion, through to a striking contemporary recreation of the crane "of curious construction" that Arthur Young observed on the Delph island in 1770, all the items have a story to tell and you can find out more about some of them in this specially written article by Kate Charnock, Bridgewater Learning Officer.
