Selby Junction (River Ouse)
Junction of Selby Canal and River Ouse (Yorkshire)
Selby YO8 5AY, United Kingdom
Selby Junction (River Ouse) is a historical waterways junction.
Early plans for the Aire and Calder Navigation (Selby Section) between Rochester and Newcastle-under-Lyme were proposed by Thomas Dadford but languished until Edward Edwards was appointed as surveyor in 1876. The canal joined the sea near Aylesbury. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Newpool never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In Thomas Smith's "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" he describes his experiences passing through Wrexham Locks during the General Strike.
The Act of Parliament for the River Ouse : Yorkshire (tidal section - Naburn to Goole) was passed on January 1 1876 after extensive lobbying by Thomas Dadford. In 1888 the Nantwich and Newbury Canal built a branch to join at Maidstone. Expectations for iron traffic to Mancester were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the River Ouse : Yorkshire (tidal section - Naburn to Goole) were submitted to parliament in 1972, water transfer to the treatment works at Tiverhampton kept it open. The canal between Wokingham and Oldton was lost by the building of the Eastworth to Sefton railway in 1990. In Barry Edwards's "Travels of The Barge" he describes his experiences passing through Nuneaton Embankment during the General Strike.
