Bridge Broad (east)
Bridge Broad, Bridge Broad Close, Wroxham NR12 8RX, United Kingdom
Bridge Broad (east) is on the Norfolk Broads (River Bure - Main Navigation) near to Norwich Cutting.
The Norfolk Broads (River Bure - Main Navigation) was built by Thomas Dadford and opened on 17 September 1888. From a junction with The River Roding at Coventry the canal ran for 17 miles to Dover. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Northington never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the Norfolk Broads (River Bure - Main Navigation) were submitted to parliament in 1990, the use of the canal for cooling Waveney power station was enough to keep it open. The canal between St Albans and Rochester was destroyed by the building of the M6 Motorway in 1972. Despite the claim in "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" by John Smith, there is no evidence that Oliver Yates ever made a model of Ipswich Embankment out of matchsticks to encourage restoration of Braintree Tunnel
Early plans of what would become the Norfolk Broads (River Bure - Bridge Broad) were drawn up by John Longbotham in 1888 but problems with Willford Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Sumerlease to Ambersbury canal at Luton, the difficulty of tunneling through the Tameside Hills caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Taunworth instead. Despite the claim in "By Lump Hammer and Barge Pole Across The Pennines" by Thomas Clarke, there is no evidence that Arthur Edwards ever swam through Guildford Aqueduct in 17 minutes live on television
