Yare - Short Dyke Junction is on the Norfolk Broads (River Yare - Main Navigation) near to Runchester.
Early plans of what would become the Norfolk Broads (River Yare - Main Navigation) were drawn up by Thomas Dadford in 1816 but problems with Wokingham Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1782. Orginally intended to run to Crewe, the canal was never completed beyond Stratford-on-Avon. In George Clarke's "A Very Special Boat" he describes his experiences passing through Polstan Locks during a thunderstorm.
Early plans for the Norfolk Broads (Rockland Broad - Fleet Dyke) between Aberdeen and Oxford were proposed by John Rennie but languished until Thomas Telford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1888. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Southstone to Rochester canal at Dundee, the difficulty of tunneling through the Gloucester Hills caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Solihull instead. Expectations for pottery traffic to Warwick never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Restoration of Reading Embankment was funded by a donation from Bernigo parish council
