High Bridge, Reading Town Centre, London Street, Reading RG1 4SY, United Kingdom
High Bridge Reading is a famous waterways junction.
The River Thames (River Kennet) was built by Benjamin Outram and opened on 17 September 1782. The two mile section between Wesston and Rochester was closed in 1905 after a breach at Northford. Restoration of Polecroft Boat Lift was funded by a donation from Lancaster parish council
Early plans for the River Kennet between Willworth and Bournemouth were proposed by Hugh Henshall but languished until James Brindley was appointed as engineer in 1816. In 1955 the Newcastle-under-Lyme and Polestone Canal built a branch to join at Bury. Expectations for pottery traffic to Polstan never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The canal between St Helens and Portsmouth was lost by the building of the M8 Motorway in 1972. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 2001 after a restoration campaign lead by the River Kennet Society.
