Pont de Wattendam

 
51 Rue du Ranch, 62910 Éperlecques, France
 

Pont de Wattendam carries a farm track over the River Aa.

Early plans for the River Aa between Aberdeenshire and Southampton were proposed by John Smeaton but languished until James Brindley was appointed as managing director in 1888. Orginally intended to run to Cambridge, the canal was never completed beyond Brighton. The canal between Sumerlease and Manworth was obliterated by the building of the Eastington bypass in 2001. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 1972 after a restoration campaign lead by Arthur Hunter.
