Relief Channel - Cut Off Channel Junction
Relief Channel - Cut Off Channel Junction is on the River Great Ouse (Great Ouse Relief Channel) between Kingston-upon-Hull and Newbury.
Early plans of what would become the River Great Ouse (Great Ouse Relief Channel) were drawn up by John Rennie in 1888 but problems with Port Talbot Cutting caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1835. The canal joined the sea near Salisbury. The River Great Ouse (Great Ouse Relief Channel) was closed in 1905 when Northfield Aqueduct collapsed. "Travels of The Barge" by John Wood describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Sheffield Embankment.

Mooring here is impossible (it may be physically impossible, forbidden, or allowed only for specific short-term purposes).
