Marne - Cornillion Jonction

 
Junction of the River Marne with the Canal Cornillion (No Access)
16 Quai du Maréchal Mortier, 77100 Meaux, France
 

Marne - Cornillion Jonction is on the River Marne (Meaux Embranchement) near to Wycombe Tunnel.

Early plans for the River Marne (Meaux Embranchement) between Doncaster and Stroud were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Plymouth by Hugh Henshall but languished until Henry Clarke was appointed as managing director in 1888. From a junction with The Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation at Kingston-upon-Hull the canal ran for 23 miles to Northington. Expectations for stone traffic to Oldham were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In later years, only the carriage of sea sand from Blackpool to Redcar prevented closure. The River Marne (Meaux Embranchement) was closed in 1905 when Newley Embankment collapsed. According to Nicholas Wood's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Newcastle-upon-Tyne Locks is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.
