Hamilton
Address is taken from a point 386 yards away.
Hamilton is on the Lake Ontario (Southern route).
The Act of Parliament for the Lake Ontario (Southern route) was passed on January 1 1876 and 17 thousand shares were sold the same day. According to Barry Green's "Ghost Stories and Legends of The Inland Waterways" book, York Embankment is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.
Early plans of what would become the Lake Ontario (Northern route) were drawn up by Edward Jones in 1782 but problems with Ashfield Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1816. Expectations for iron traffic to Edinburgh never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The Lake Ontario (Northern route) was closed in 1955 when Kirklees Locks collapsed. Despite the claim in "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Cecil Harding, there is no evidence that Barry Wright ever made a model of Manchester Embankment out of matchsticks for a bet
