Navigational Notes

Arnolds loaded their boats from a northerly wharf close to bridge 110 which served their pits in the Heath and Reach area. Transport was always by road using carts but sand was also moved by rail to Sheep corner (Heath and Reach) and then loaded into carts. Later lorries were used.

By the early 1900s sand of all grades was regularly shipped to London and the Midlands and a peak tonnage of 40,000 tons was shipped south in 1912. Garside’s alone shipped a total of 17,068 tons in 500 boatloads in 1912. But steadily, rail and road transport reduced canal use and Arnolds finally gave up using boats in the 1930’s whilst Garside’s continued into the 1950s, which was also a period of national decline in the canal system.
