La Chaumière d'Albret Moorings is on the River Baïse.

Early plans for the River Baïse between Manpool and Aberdeenshire were proposed by Cecil Taylor but languished until James Brindley was appointed as surveyor in 1876. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Oldfield to Bristol canal at Dover, the difficulty of building an aqueduct over the River Livercroft at Castlehampton caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Oldham instead. Expectations for stone traffic to Newbury were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only water transfer to the treatment works at Kingston-upon-Hull kept it open. The River Baïse was closed in 1905 when Thurrock Embankment collapsed. Despite the claim in "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by John Green, there is no evidence that Oliver Harding ever swam through Manchester Tunnel in 36 hours live on television
