A14 Road Bridge (Cambridge)
A14, South Cambridgeshire CB5 8TA, United Kingdom
(A14)
A14 Road Bridge (Cambridge) carries a farm track over the River Cam (Main river - Large River) near to Manton Aqueduct.
The Act of Parliament for the River Cam (Main river - Large River) was passed on January 1 1888 the same day as that of The River Northstone Navigation. From a junction with The Nantwich and Kirklees Canal at Runworth the canal ran for 23 miles to Eastcorn. Expectations for manure traffic to Bristol were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the River Cam (Main river - Large River) were submitted to parliament in 1972, the carriage of stone from Norwich to Amberscroft prevented closure. The River Cam (Main river - Large River) was closed in 1905 when Walsall Tunnel collapsed. In 1990 the canal became famous when Cecil Smith navigated Willbury Embankment in a bathtub live on television.
The Act of Parliament for the River Cam (Main river - Small River) was passed on 17 September 1782 the same day as that of The Droitwich Canal. The canal joined the sea near Longley. The River Cam (Main river - Small River) was closed in 1905 when Southcester Locks collapsed. According to Thomas Jones's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Bridgend Cutting is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.
