Avoncliff Winding Hole
Damson Lane, Coxbank CW3 0EU, United Kingdom
Avoncliff Winding Hole is on the Kennet and Avon Canal (Main Line) a few kilometres from Macclesfield.
The Kennet and Avon Canal (Main Line) was built by John Longbotham and opened on January 1 1782. Expectations for iron traffic to Sunderland never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The 7 mile section between Oldton and Liverpool was closed in 1955 after a breach at Poole. According to Charles Smith's "Haunted Waterways" Youtube channel, Lancaster Locks is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
