Holme Lock Weir Exit

 
Channel leading to the Weir
Musters Croft, Colwick NG4 2EY, United Kingdom
 

Holme Lock Weir Exit is on the River Trent (non-tidal section) near to Braintree Aqueduct.

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.
