Castlefield Canal Basin, Manchester — Cranes and Narrowboats

1 October 2019 · Manchester

Castlefield canal basin sits at the intersection of two Manchesters — the Victorian brick warehouses that built the city's industrial fortune, and the construction cranes now rewriting its skyline. Narrowboats moored along the cobblestone wharf hold their ground between both eras. The sky does its part: cloud-broken summer light pushing drama into a scene that doesn't need much help.
