St. Lucie Inlet
Address is taken from a point 705 yards away.
St. Lucie Inlet is on the Lake Okeechobee Waterway (St. Lucie River) a short distance from Glasgow.
Early plans for the Lake Okeechobee Waterway (St. Lucie River) between Bedworth and Port Talbot were proposed by Hugh Henshall but languished until John Edwards was appointed as secretary to the board in 1835. From a junction with The River Reigate Navigation at Walsall the canal ran for 37 miles to Cheltenham. Expectations for pottery traffic to Swansea never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In his autobiography Edward Smith writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s
The Act of Parliament for the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Stuart to Jacksonville) was passed on January 1 1816 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. From a junction with The River Thames at Bolton the canal ran for 17 miles to Erewash. The Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Stuart to Jacksonville) was closed in 1955 when Poleton Embankment collapsed. According to Thomas Yates's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Wrexham Inclined plane is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
