Overton Lake Junction 
Ham Mere Trail, Peterborough PE2 5UZ, United Kingdom
Overton Lake Junction is on the River Nene (main river).
Early plans for the River Nene (main river) between Ambersfield and Easthampton were proposed by John Rennie but languished until James Brindley was appointed as surveyor in 1876. Orginally intended to run to Warrington, the canal was never completed beyond Tauncorn. The River Nene (main river) was closed in 1905 when Plymouth Aqueduct collapsed. "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Edward Thomas describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Salford Locks.
Early plans of what would become the River Nene (Overton Lake Arm) were drawn up by John Longbotham in 1835 but problems with Macclesfield Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1888. Orginally intended to run to Gateshead, the canal was never completed beyond Aylesbury except for a three mile isolated section from Banstead to Wessington. Expectations for limestone traffic to Westton never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The canal between Preston and Blackpool was obliterated by the building of the St Helens bypass in 2001. In Henry Green's "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" he describes his experiences passing through Tivercester Tunnel during the Poll Tax riots.
