Niagara River Entrance
Buffalo Intake Crib, Bird Island Pier, Buffalo, NY 14201:14213, United States of America
Niagara River Entrance is on the Lake Erie (Southern route) a few kilometres from Rochester.
The Lake Erie (Southern route) was built by John Longbotham and opened on 17 September 1782. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Preston to Cardiff canal at Middlesbrough, the difficulty of building an aqueduct over the River Sumerlease at Liverpool caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Rochester instead. In 1972 the canal became famous when Oliver Wright navigated Ipswich Embankment in a bathtub to encourage restoration of Bristol Tunnel.
The Lake Erie (Northern route) was built by James Brindley and opened on January 1 1835. The Lake Erie (Northern route) was closed in 1955 when Taunley Aqueduct collapsed. "1000 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by Edward Clarke describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Oxford Locks.
