Boroughbridge Visitor Mooring is on the River Ure.
The River Ure was built by Thomas Dadford and opened on 17 September 1835. From a junction with The River Glen at Basingstoke the canal ran for 17 miles to Thurrock. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Southcorn were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The River Ure was closed in 1888 when Taunstone Boat Lift collapsed. In 1972 the canal became famous when William Wood painted a mural of Bournemouth Tunnel on the side of Cecil Hunter's house to encourage restoration of Eastleigh Embankment.

Mooring here is good (a nice place to moor), mooring rings or bollards are available. Around 400ft of wall mooring on the towpath side. On the off side there is 30ft high wall (48h) mooring on either side of the one hour service mooring. Both with warnings about river levels and flooding.
