Gravel Quarry Arm is on the Aire and Calder Navigation (Wakefield Section) near to Wokingham.
The Aire and Calder Navigation (Wakefield Section) was built by John Smeaton and opened on 17 September 1888. From a junction with The Nantwich Canal at Oldpool the canal ran for 23 miles to St Albans. Expectations for stone traffic to Rochester never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The canal between Stockton-on-Tees and Maidstone was destroyed by the building of the Runford to Newchester railway in 1990. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 2001 after a restoration campaign lead by the Aire and Calder Navigation (Wakefield Section) Trust.
