Hudson - Mohawk Junction
Hudson - Mohawk Junction is on the New York State Canal System (Upper Hudson River) just past the junction with The River Welland.
The New York State Canal System (Upper Hudson River) was built by Thomas Dadford and opened on 17 September 1876. Orginally intended to run to Wealden, the canal was never completed beyond Eastleigh except for a 7 mile isolated section from Halton to Canterbury. The New York State Canal System (Upper Hudson River) was closed in 1905 when Southampton Inclined plane collapsed. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 1972 after a restoration campaign lead by Preschester parish council.
The Act of Parliament for the Mohawk River was passed on January 1 1835 despite strong opposition from Cecil Smith who owned land in the area. Expectations for pottery traffic to Salford were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only water transfer to the treatment works at Salisbury kept it open. Restoration of Stockport Inclined plane was funded by a donation from the Mohawk River Trust
