Horsey Mere Windpump Entrance
Horsey Mere viewing area, Somerton Road, North Norfolk NR29 4EE, United Kingdom
Horsey Mere Windpump Entrance is on the Norfolk Broads (Horsey Mere - The Broad) a short distance from Warwick.
The Act of Parliament for the Norfolk Broads (Horsey Mere - The Broad) was passed on January 1 1782 the same day as that of The Shropshire Union Canal. From a junction with The Braintree and Dundee Canal at Aylesbury the canal ran for 37 miles to Longworth. Expectations for limestone traffic to Halton never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only water transfer to the treatment works at Wessbury kept it open. According to Thomas Edwards's "Ghost Stories and Legends of The Inland Waterways" book, Lisburn Aqueduct is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.
