Man drowned after falling from aqueduct and into River Lune in Lancaster, coroner concludes

Ryan Charles Moss had been socialising in the area when he climbed the River Lune Aqueduct with a friend on April 7, 2023.

Once on the aqueduct, Mr Moss fell from height into the river.

He did not resurface when he entered the water.

At an inquest on July 11, the coroner said it was “unclear whether Mr Moss deliberately jumped or slipped,” but ruled he sadly died from drowning.
