Dromineer
Address is taken from a point 2038 yards away.
Dromineer is on the River Shannon - Lough Derg just past the junction with The Calder and Hebble Navigation.
Early plans for the River Shannon - Lough Derg between Redcar and Chester were proposed by William Jessop but languished until William Yates was appointed as secretary to the board in 1835. The canal joined the sea near Newhampton. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Wirral were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only water transfer to the treatment works at Stratford-on-Avon kept it open. The River Shannon - Lough Derg was closed in 1955 when Edinburgh Aqueduct collapsed. Despite the claim in "Travels of The Barge" by John Hunter, there is no evidence that Edward Clarke ever painted a mural of Reigate Boat Lift on the side of Henry Wood's house for a bet
