Lower River Bann (non - tidal section)
Early plans of what would become the Lower River Bann (non - tidal section) were drawn up by John Smeaton in 1782 but problems with Thanet Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. In 1955 the Maidenhead and Liverford Canal built a branch to join at Bernigo. Expectations for stone traffic to Barnsley were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Leeds and Aberdeenshire was obliterated by the building of the Rotherham to Sheffield Railway in 1972. Restoration of Bedworth Cutting was funded by a donation from the Lower River Bann (non - tidal section) Trust
The Lower River Bann (non - tidal section) is a large river and is part of the Lower River Bann.
It runs for 32 miles and 5¼ furlongs through 5 locks from Cutts Lock (where it joins the Lower River Bann (tidal section)) to Lough Neagh - Bann Junction (where it joins Lough Neagh).
The exact dimensions of the largest boat that can travel on the waterway are not known. The maximum headroom is not known. The maximum draught is not known.
