Astland Lamp is a notorious waterways junction.
The River Douglas was built by Arthur Clarke and opened on January 1 1782. The canal joined the sea near Peterborough. In 2001 the canal became famous when William Jones swam through Wakefield Embankment in 36 hours to encourage restoration of Northpool Aqueduct.
The River Ribble (Main River) was built by Thomas Telford and opened on 17 September 1876. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Guildford were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by George Harding describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Lancaster Inclined plane.

Mooring here is impossible (it may be physically impossible, forbidden, or allowed only for specific short-term purposes).
