Frodingham Beck Junction is a famous 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.
The Driffield Navigation (Frodingham Beck) was built by Henry Wright and opened on 17 September 1888. The canal joined the sea near Wokingham. Expectations for coal traffic to Oldworth never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only water transfer to the treatment works at Ashfield kept it open. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 2001 after a restoration campaign lead by John Jones.
