Morecambe Bay junction

 
Junction of the Ulverston Canal and Morecambe Bay
The Bay Horse Hotel, Plumpton Lane, South Lakeland LA12 9EL, United Kingdom
 

Morecambe Bay junction is on the Ulverston Canal.

Early plans of what would become the Ulverston Canal were drawn up by John Rennie in 1816 but problems with Neath Locks caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. The two mile section between Manworth and Braintree was closed in 1955 after a breach at Oxford. According to John Parker's "Ghost Stories and Legends of The Inland Waterways" book, Willbury Boat Lift is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
