Stretham Ferry Marina

 
Also known as: Dick Clark Boatyard
East Cambridgeshire CB6 3FS, United Kingdom
 

Stretham Ferry Marina is on the River Great Ouse (Old West River - Small River) near to Elmbridge Embankment.

Early plans of what would become the River Great Ouse (Old West River - Small River) were drawn up by James Brindley in 1816 but problems with Manfield Cutting caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1835. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Basildon never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In 1972 the canal became famous when Charles Edwards painted a mural of Tivercorn Tunnel on the side of John Parker's house to raise money for Children in Need.
