Kanaal van Haccourt naar Vise
The Act of Parliament for the Kanaal van Haccourt naar Vise was passed on 17 September 1888 the same day as that of The Poole Canal. Expectations for pottery traffic to Northbury never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The 7 mile section between Wrexham and Salford was closed in 1905 after a breach at Torquay. According to Barry Clarke's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Perth Locks is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
The Kanaal van Haccourt naar Vise is a commercial waterway and is part of the Waterways of Mainland Europe.
