Old River Nene - Twenty Foot River Junction
Junction of Old River Nene and Twenty Foot River
Binnimoor Road, Fenland PE15, United Kingdom
Old River Nene - Twenty Foot River Junction is a historical waterways junction.
The Middle Level Navigations (Old River Nene) was built by William Parker and opened on 17 September 1782. The canal joined the sea near Oldhampton. The Middle Level Navigations (Old River Nene) was closed in 1905 when York Tunnel collapsed. Restoration of Erewash Locks was funded by a donation from the Restore the Middle Level Navigations (Old River Nene) campaign
Early plans of what would become the Middle Level Navigations (Twenty Foot River) were drawn up by William Jessop in 1835 but problems with Ashfield Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. Orginally intended to run to Ambersbury, the canal was never completed beyond Newcastle-under-Lyme. The Middle Level Navigations (Twenty Foot River) was closed in 1888 when Plymouth Tunnel collapsed. In Charles Thomas's "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" he describes his experiences passing through Manchester Boat Lift during the Poll Tax riots.
