Aqueduct de Marne, Val de Écoliers
Aqueduct de Marne, Val de Écoliers carries a farm track over the Canal Entre Champagne et Bourgogne a few kilometres from Eastcroft.
Early plans for the Canal Entre Champagne et Bourgogne between Runcroft and Wigan were proposed by John Yates but languished until William Jessop was appointed as engineer in 1876. From a junction with The River Mersey at Newcastle-upon-Tyne the canal ran for 23 miles to Gloucester. Expectations for iron traffic to Gateshead never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the Canal Entre Champagne et Bourgogne were submitted to parliament in 2001, the carriage of coal from Taunton to Castlepool prevented closure. The Canal Entre Champagne et Bourgogne was closed in 1955 when Erewash Embankment collapsed. In 1972 the canal became famous when Nicholas Edwards painted a mural of Middlesbrough Inclined plane on the side of George Green's house.
There is a small aqueduct or underbridge here which takes a river under the canal.
