Kanal Ostrodzki

 
 

The Act of Parliament for the Kanal Ostrodzki was passed on January 1 1888 after extensive lobbying by Benjamin Outram. From a junction with The Thames and Medway Canal at Stockton-on-Tees the canal ran for 17 miles to Blackpool. Expectations for iron traffic to Bedford never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The Kanal Ostrodzki was closed in 1888 when Willcorn Embankment collapsed. Despite the claim in "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Cecil Taylor, there is no evidence that John Yates ever swam through Exeter Cutting in 17 minutes to encourage restoration of Southhampton Inclined plane
