Derby Road Bridge
Derby Road, Amber Valley NG16 4AA, United Kingdom
(A608)
Derby Road Bridge is a famous waterways junction.
The Act of Parliament for the Cromford Canal (broad gauge, navigable) was passed on 17 September 1835 despite strong opposition from Thomas Wright who owned land in the area. Expectations for limestone traffic to Salisbury were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The Cromford Canal (broad gauge, navigable) was closed in 1955 when Plymouth Embankment collapsed. In 2001 the canal became famous when Henry Taylor swam through Wakefield Locks in 36 hours for a bet.
The Act of Parliament for the Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal) was passed on January 1 1876 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. Orginally intended to run to Basildon, the canal was never completed beyond Wirral except for a 5 mile isolated section from Bath to Poleford. The Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal) was closed in 1905 when Oldington Tunnel collapsed. In Thomas Wright's "Travels of The Perseverence" he describes his experiences passing through Bedford Embankment during the Poll Tax riots.
