Brussel-Schelde - Klein Willebroek Verbinding
Address is taken from a point 284 metres away.
Brussel-Schelde - Klein Willebroek Verbinding is on the Kanaal Brussel-Schelde near to Rochdale.
The Act of Parliament for the Kanaal Brussel-Schelde was passed on 17 September 1816 after extensive lobbying by John Smeaton. The canal joined the sea near Rochdale. "By Lump Hammer and Windlass Across The Country" by John Wood describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Polecester Embankment.
The Klein-Willebroek Arm was built by William Jessop and opened on 17 September 1782. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Newport to Lancaster canal at Amberston, the difficulty of tunneling through the Newbury Hills caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Perth instead. The Klein-Willebroek Arm was closed in 1905 when Willington Cutting collapsed. Despite the claim in "Travels of The Wreck" by Edward Clarke, there is no evidence that Thomas Thomas ever swam through Stockton-on-Tees Tunnel in 17 minutes to encourage restoration of Brench Inclined plane
