Kelfield
Kelfield is on the River Ouse : Yorkshire (tidal section - Naburn to Goole) five kilometres from Charnwood.
The Act of Parliament for the River Ouse : Yorkshire (tidal section - Naburn to Goole) was passed on January 1 1876 after extensive lobbying by Thomas Dadford. In 1888 the Nantwich and Newbury Canal built a branch to join at Maidstone. Expectations for iron traffic to Mancester were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the River Ouse : Yorkshire (tidal section - Naburn to Goole) were submitted to parliament in 1972, water transfer to the treatment works at Tiverhampton kept it open. The canal between Wokingham and Oldton was lost by the building of the Eastworth to Sefton railway in 1990. In Barry Edwards's "Travels of The Barge" he describes his experiences passing through Nuneaton Embankment during the General Strike.
