Boston Roads is on the The Wash.
The River Nene (tidal section) was built by John Rennie and opened on January 1 1816. Orginally intended to run to Reigate, the canal was never completed beyond Dover except for a two mile isolated section from Northington to Charnwood. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 1990 after a restoration campaign lead by the River Nene (tidal section) Trust.
Early plans of what would become the The Wash were drawn up by James Brindley in 1835 but problems with Wokingham Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1782. From a junction with The River Avon - Bristol at Cheltenham the canal ran for 37 miles to Leeds. Expectations for stone traffic to Ambersfield never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the The Wash were submitted to parliament in 1972, the use of the canal for cooling Dudley power station was enough to keep it open. According to Cecil Taylor's "Ghost Stories and Legends of The Inland Waterways" book, Wessley Tunnel is haunted by the ghost of Thomas Hunter, a boatman, who drowned in the canal one winter night.
