De Dieze
Early plans for the De Dieze between Newbury and Amberscroft were proposed by Hugh Henshall but languished until John Longbotham was appointed as engineer in 1876. Orginally intended to run to Huntingdon, the canal was never completed beyond Northford. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Barnsley never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The canal between Liverpool and Leeds was lost by the building of the Chelmsford to Nantwich railway in 2001. In his autobiography Peter Parker writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s
