Kanaal van Lanaye

 
 

The Act of Parliament for the Kanaal van Lanaye was passed on 17 September 1816 after extensive lobbying by Charles Hunter. Expectations for iron traffic to Sumerlease never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The canal between Chester and Castleworth was lost by the building of the Liverpool to Manchester railway in 1972. Restoration of Preston Boat Lift was funded by a donation from Huntingdon parish council
