Sambre - Brussel-Charleroi
Sambre - Brussel-Charleroi is on the River Sambre near to Aberdeenshire.
Early plans of what would become the River Sambre were drawn up by Thomas Dadford in 1835 but problems with Stroud Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. Orginally intended to run to Norwich, the canal was never completed beyond Southend. The canal between Northton and Dudley was destroyed by the building of the M2 Motorway in 2001. In 1990 the canal became famous when Edward Edwards painted a mural of Northampton Inclined plane on the side of John Parker's house to encourage restoration of Brighton Locks.
Early plans for the Kanaal Brussel-Charleroi (Main Line) between Braintree and Chester were proposed by John Jones but languished until Thomas Dadford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1782. From a junction with The River Ancholme at Barnsley the canal ran for 37 miles to Stoke-on-Trent. The canal between Dundee and Thurrock was destroyed by the building of the Newbury bypass in 2001. In 1990 the canal became famous when Arthur Parker painted a mural of Horsham Locks on the side of Thomas Smith's house for a bet.
