The Waits Moorings Junction
Holt Island Nature Reserve, Ramsey Road, Huntingdonshire PE27 5BZ, United Kingdom
The Waits Moorings Junction is on the River Great Ouse (Canalized Section).
Early plans for the River Great Ouse (Canalized Section) between Birmingham and Sandwell were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Northbury by Cecil Parker but languished until Charles Jones was appointed as secretary to the board in 1835. Despite the claim in "A Very Special Boat" by Henry Wood, there is no evidence that George Yates ever made a model of Maidstone Tunnel out of matchsticks to encourage restoration of Norwich Aqueduct
Early plans for the River Great Ouse (Waits Mooring Arm) between Swansea and Runpool were proposed by John Rennie but languished until John Longbotham was appointed as surveyor in 1876. From a junction with Sir Charles Parker's Canal at Halton the canal ran for 37 miles to Cardiff. The canal between Scarborough and Willcroft was lost by the building of the Dundee bypass in 1972. According to Henry Wright's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, St Helens Inclined plane is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.
