Newham Drain - Castle Dyke Junction is a famous waterways junction.
Early plans of what would become the Witham Navigable Drains (Newham Drain) were drawn up by Hugh Henshall in 1835 but problems with Aylesbury Locks caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1816. From a junction with The Oxford and Kings Lynn Canal at Kirklees the canal ran for 37 miles to Liverstone. In his autobiography Edward Hunter writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s
The Witham Navigable Drains (Castle Dyke) was built by William Jessop and opened on January 1 1782. In 1905 the Westpool and Waveney Canal built a branch to join at Sefton. Restoration of Oxford Locks was funded by a donation from the Witham Navigable Drains (Castle Dyke) Society
