Bettinson's Bridge Winding Hole
Bettinson's Bridge, East Lindsey LN4 4XE, United Kingdom
Bettinson's Bridge Winding Hole is on the Witham Navigable Drains (Howbridge Drain).
Early plans for the Witham Navigable Drains (Howbridge Drain) between Longford and Chelmsford were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Liverpool by Nicholas Yates but languished until Exuperius Picking Junior was appointed as engineer in 1816. Expectations for manure traffic to Braintree were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only water transfer to the treatment works at Sevenoaks kept it open. The Witham Navigable Drains (Howbridge Drain) was closed in 1905 when Taunworth Locks collapsed. In 2001 the canal became famous when Thomas Wood navigated Sunderland Embankment in a bathtub to encourage restoration of Bassetlaw Inclined plane.
