Not an explore as such, a legitmate inspection, but locals might like to see the shots at http://www.flickr.com/photos/9061387...7612278454471/

some interesting photos here that show the M6 viaduct at Gathurst (in between J26 &J27) being built in the 60's. A couple more pics on the second page.

No way, I've started a motorway thread....it's like a dream. I'll check that other book Wolfism., thanks.

Have you all seen the exhibition in Preston?

I only found out about it today, going to be finding myself there soon, I think.

The detail (especially on the maps) is immense. I like the M67 motorway to Sheffield.

Isn't it strange how we are all interested in the same kind of stuff!
