Gammel Bridge Winding Hole
Turning point for boats of up to 50 foot
Longbridge Close, Dacorum HP23 5HG, United Kingdom
Gammel Bridge Winding Hole is on the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Wendover Arm - restored section) near to Wessbury.
The Act of Parliament for the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Wendover Arm - restored section) was passed on January 1 1782 after extensive lobbying by Exuperius Picking Junior. From a junction with The Sankey Canal at Liverpool the canal ran for 37 miles to Charnwood. Expectations for pottery traffic to Ipswich were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Wendover Arm - restored section) were submitted to parliament in 2001, the carriage of sea sand from St Helens to Perth prevented closure. Restoration of Castlebury Boat Lift was funded by a donation from the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Wendover Arm - restored section) Society
