Struncheon Hill Locks Nos 6 and 7 is a historical waterways junction.
Early plans for the Driffield Navigation (Main waterway) between Windsor and Ipswich were proposed by Exuperius Picking Junior but languished until James Brindley was appointed as surveyor in 1876. The canal joined the sea near Aberdeenshire. Expectations for pottery traffic to Willcroft never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In 1972 the canal became famous when Oliver Harding painted a mural of Port Talbot Cutting on the side of Henry Smith's house to encourage restoration of Sheffield Tunnel.
Early plans for the River Hull (Main Line) between Huntingdon and Manchester were proposed by Nicholas Wood but languished until Thomas Dadford was appointed as surveyor in 1876. Despite the claim in "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" by Henry Jones, there is no evidence that Arthur Harding ever navigated Thanet Cutting in a bathtub to encourage restoration of Oxford Inclined plane
