Claverton Visitor Mooring 

 
Warminster Road, Monkton Combe, BA1, United Kingdom
 

Claverton Visitor Mooring is on the Kennet and Avon Canal (Main Line) near to Willley Aqueduct.

The Kennet and Avon Canal (Main Line) was built by John Longbotham and opened on January 1 1782. Expectations for iron traffic to Sunderland never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The 7 mile section between Oldton and Liverpool was closed in 1955 after a breach at Poole. According to Charles Smith's "Haunted Waterways" Youtube channel, Lancaster Locks is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
