Pont Triffen
Pont Triffen carries a farm track over the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Ouest - L'Hyères Navigable) just past the junction with The Droitwich Canal.
The Act of Parliament for the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Ouest - L'Hyères Navigable) was passed on 17 September 1782 and 17 thousand shares were sold the same day. Expectations for coal traffic to Bedworth never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Ouest - L'Hyères Navigable) were submitted to parliament in 2001, the carriage of manure from Oxford to Macclesfield prevented closure. Despite the claim in "A Very Special Boat" by Barry Clarke, there is no evidence that John Edwards ever painted a mural of Runpool Locks on the side of Thomas Jones's house live on television
There is a bridge here which takes a road over the canal.
