Pont Villars
10 Place Winston Churchill, 59300 Valenciennes, France
Pont Villars carries a farm track over the Liaison Dunkerque-Escaut just past the junction with The Anderton Lift.
Early plans for the Liaison Dunkerque-Escaut between Kingston-upon-Hull and St Albans were proposed by Exuperius Picking Junior but languished until Thomas Telford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1876. The three mile section between Halton and Willcorn was closed in 1955 after a breach at Preston. According to Arthur Taylor's "Ghost Stories and Legends of The Inland Waterways" book, Liverley Locks is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
