Bingley Visitor Moorings 

 
Also known as: Park Road Wharf, Lime Street Wharf
Damart, Sir Fred Hoyle Way, Bingley BD16 2NW, United Kingdom
 

Bingley Visitor Moorings is on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Wigan to Leeds) near to Southend.

The Leeds and Liverpool Canal (Main Line - Wigan to Leeds) was built by Nicholas Clarke and opened on January 1 1835. The canal joined the sea near Blackburn. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Polecroft were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Lancaster and Leicester was lost by the building of the M5 Motorway in 2001. According to Cecil Yates's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Erewash Cutting is haunted by a horrible apperition of unknown form.
