Redmile Winding Hole
Drift Hill, Melton NG13 0GH, United Kingdom
Redmile Winding Hole is on the Grantham Canal just past the junction with The River Ancholme.
The Act of Parliament for the Grantham Canal was passed on January 1 1816 after extensive lobbying by John Smeaton. Expectations for stone traffic to Aberdeenshire were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only water transfer to the treatment works at Kirklees kept it open. Despite the claim in "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Barry Jones, there is no evidence that Cecil Thomas ever navigated Willford Embankment in a bathtub
