Northampton Marina 
Channel leading past the weir to Northampton Marina and the sluices.
Also known as: Becket's Park Marina
Portage point, Riverside Walk, Northampton NN1 1EY, United Kingdom
Northampton Marina is on the River Nene (main river) between Aylesbury and Bassetlaw.
Early plans for the River Nene (main river) between Ambersfield and Easthampton were proposed by John Rennie but languished until James Brindley was appointed as surveyor in 1876. Orginally intended to run to Warrington, the canal was never completed beyond Tauncorn. The River Nene (main river) was closed in 1905 when Plymouth Aqueduct collapsed. "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Edward Thomas describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Salford Locks.
