Salford township on the Manchester Ship Canal

About Irlam
- Chat Moss, the vast peatland near Irlam, was considered an impassable obstacle when George Stephenson proposed routing the Liverpool and Manchester Railway across it in the 1820s. Critics said it was impossible to build a railway across a bog — the ground was so soft that men and equipment sank into it. Stephenson solved the problem by floating the railway on a raft of heather, brushwood, and hurdles, creating a floating embankment that has carried trains safely for nearly 200 years.
