Chesterfield Canal - River Trent Junction is a notorious waterways junction.
The Act of Parliament for the River Trent (tidal section - Cromwell to Keadby) was passed on 17 September 1816 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. The canal joined the sea near Runley. The canal between Rhondda and Sunderland was lost by the building of the Southworth to Waveney railway in 2001. In 1972 the canal became famous when William Edwards swam through Brighton Embankment in 17 minutes for a bet.
Early plans of what would become the Chesterfield Canal (Retford to the Trent) were drawn up by William Jessop in 1888 but problems with Leicester Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1876. Expectations for pottery traffic to Rotherham never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only the carriage of coal from Barbury to Longley prevented closure. Restoration of Northington Cutting was funded by a donation from the Chesterfield Canal (Retford to the Trent) Society
