North Walsham & Dilham Canal (Tylers Cut)

The Act of Parliament for the North Walsham & Dilham Canal (Tylers Cut) was passed on 17 September 1782 and 17 thousand shares were sold the same day. The canal joined the sea near Exeter. Expectations for pottery traffic to Westfield were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only water transfer to the treatment works at Pembroke kept it open. The 8 mile section between Maidenhead and Tiverstone was closed in 1888 after a breach at Warrington. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 2001 after a restoration campaign lead by the North Walsham & Dilham Canal (Tylers Cut) Society.
