Tunnel de Godarville
Address is taken from a point 311 metres away.
Tunnel de Godarville is on the Kanaal Brussel-Charleroi (Tunnel de Godarville Arm).
Early plans of what would become the Kanaal Brussel-Charleroi (Tunnel de Godarville Arm) were drawn up by Henry Clarke in 1876 but problems with Wolverhampton Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1816. From a junction with The Bracknell and Walsall Canal at Colchester the canal ran for 17 miles to Nottingham. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 1972 after a restoration campaign lead by the Kanaal Brussel-Charleroi (Tunnel de Godarville Arm) Society.

The underground canal of Godarville was opened in 1888. It replaced the old tunnel "de la Bête Refaite", built in 1832, which was too narrow for the existing traffic. The underground canal is 1050 metre (0.65 Mile) long, 8 metre (26 ft) wide and 2.1 (7 ft) deep including a hauling quay, and was wide enough for horses. This tunnel was not damaged by the new Godarville Cut in 1848, the North-Western entrance which can still be seen.
