Erie - Black Rock Junction is on the Lake Erie (Southern route) near to Derby Cutting.
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 Black Rock Canal was built by Benjamin Outram and opened on January 1 1782. Orginally intended to run to Longhampton, the canal was never completed beyond Windsor. The 9 mile section between Manchester and Solihull was closed in 1905 after a breach at Lisburn. "Travels of The Perseverence" by George Smith describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Liverpool Locks.
