Lock 6 , Outwood Wharf and Oldfield Road Wharf are buried below several metres of brick hardcore. The dip in the brick retaining wall indicates the site of Lock 6.

Very little can be seen of what once was a thriving commercial centre and the Salford terminus of the canal.

Most of Crescent wharf is now used by the University of Salford as a car park.
