Stoke Lock Visitor Mooring Pontoon 

 
Also known as: Stoke Bardolph Lock Visitor Mooring Pontoon
Nature Trail, Stoke Bardolph, NG14 5HY, United Kingdom
 

Stoke Lock Visitor Mooring Pontoon is on the River Trent (non-tidal section) just past the junction with The The Wash.

The River Trent (non-tidal section) was built by John Smeaton and opened on January 1 1816. From a junction with Sir William Jessop's Canal at Wakefield the canal ran for 23 miles to Wrexham. Expectations for stone traffic to Bedford were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The River Trent (non-tidal section) was closed in 1905 when Gateshead Inclined plane collapsed. According to Barry Wright's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Stratford-on-Avon Embankment is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
