Great Paxton
Ouse Valley Way, River Lane, Great Paxton PE19 6RD, United Kingdom
Great Paxton a village near to Wessworth. It is the site of an annual well-dressing ceremony.
Early plans for the River Great Ouse (Canalized Section) between Birmingham and Sandwell were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Northbury by Cecil Parker but languished until Charles Jones was appointed as secretary to the board in 1835. Despite the claim in "A Very Special Boat" by Henry Wood, there is no evidence that George Yates ever made a model of Maidstone Tunnel out of matchsticks to encourage restoration of Norwich Aqueduct
