![Froghall Tunnel, Staffordshire. This 76 yards long (69.5 metres) tunnel has a very low headroom (see below) and most narrowboats cannot go through it. For that reason there are few boats on the canal this side of it; none today in the beautiful newly restored visitors' basin with its excellent mooring facilities. The image shows the north-east portal of the tunnel, always heavily shaded by mature deciduous trees.[[[603926]]]The Caldon Branch of the Trent and Mersey Canal was opened from Etruria to Froghall in 1779, and extended to Uttoxeter in 1811, though this final branch was already closed by 1849.Froghall Tunnel maximum boat dimensions are:Height 52 inches (1.32 metres)Cabin width at top 66 inches (1.68 metres)These figures are from Nicholson's Waterways Guide 4 (2007 printing).
