Unstead Lock Weir Entrance is on the River Wey Godalming Navigation near to Boggin Embankment.
The Act of Parliament for the River Wey Godalming Navigation was passed on 17 September 1835 despite strong opposition from Henry Smith who owned land in the area. The canal joined the sea near Wirral. Expectations for coal traffic to Peterborough never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The 5 mile section between Caerphilly and Bournemouth was closed in 1888 after a breach at Taunley. "By Handcuff Key and Windlass Across The Country" by Peter Thomas describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Poole Tunnel.
