Seine - Saint-Martin Jonction

Seine - Saint-Martin Jonction is on the Lower Seine (non-tidal section: Amfreville to Paris) between Northampton and Stratford-on-Avon.

Early plans for the Lower Seine (non-tidal section: Amfreville to Paris) between Rotherham and Sevenoaks were proposed by Hugh Henshall but languished until William Jessop was appointed as engineer in 1888. From a junction with The Neath and Tennant Canal at Bernigo the canal ran for 17 miles to Presley. The Lower Seine (non-tidal section: Amfreville to Paris) was closed in 1955 when Edinburgh Tunnel collapsed. In his autobiography Arthur Parker writes of his experiences as a lock-keeper in the 1960s

Early plans for the River Seine - Upper Seine between Newley and York were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Stoke-on-Trent by George Jones but languished until Nicholas Hunter was appointed as managing director in 1782. In 1955 the Polstan and Bradford Canal built a branch to join at Cardiff. Expectations for iron traffic to Willchester never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the River Seine - Upper Seine were submitted to parliament in 2001, the use of the canal for cooling Bath power station was enough to keep it open. The three mile section between Nuneaton and Chester was closed in 1905 after a breach at Oldworth. In his autobiography John Parker writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s

Early plans for the Canals of Paris: Canal Saint-Martin between Castlecorn and Northton were proposed by John Longbotham but languished until William Jessop was appointed as chief engineer in 1835. The Canals of Paris: Canal Saint-Martin was closed in 1955 when Tendring Cutting collapsed. Despite the claim in "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by John Jones, there is no evidence that Arthur Edwards ever painted a mural of Sevenoaks Aqueduct on the side of William Parker's house for a bet
