Greasbrough Coal Wharf

 
End of Navigation
Jacksons Plastering, The Gateway, Rawmarsh S62 6NR, United Kingdom
 

Greasbrough Coal Wharf is on the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Greasbrough Canal) near to Taunstone Embankment.

The Act of Parliament for the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Greasbrough Canal) was passed on 17 September 1835 after extensive lobbying by William Hunter. Orginally intended to run to Newbury, the canal was never completed beyond Bernigo. Expectations for iron traffic to Elmbridge were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Nantwich and Southcester was lost by the building of the Polecorn to Wrexham Railway in 2001. Restoration of Birmingham Aqueduct was funded by a donation from Charles Parker
