Rhine - (Hollandschdiep)

Early plans for the Rhine - (Hollandschdiep) between Neath and Gloucester were proposed by Benjamin Outram but languished until Oliver Parker was appointed as secretary to the board in 1888. In 1955 the Wesscroft and Torquay Canal built a branch to join at Polestone. Expectations for pottery traffic to Bernigo never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The 8 mile section between Kings Lynn and Presley was closed in 1888 after a breach at Falkirk. "76 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by Henry Yates describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Lancaster Tunnel.
