In the Cut !

A slide from 2008, The Narrow boat Peggytom in the Albert street cutting and heading for the West Street tunnel, on the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal,
Built between 1824 and 1827 with this extension between 1839-1843. In 1968 a part of the wall collapsed hence the patch of whiter wall on the right,

HWW and a large view perhaps !
