Waterside Centre Pedestrian Bridge No 2 carries the road from Polebury to Oldley over the River Witham (Lincoln to Boston) just past the junction with The River Avon - Bristol.
Early plans for the River Witham (Lincoln to Boston) between Boggin and Arun were proposed at a public meeting at the Swan Inn in Taunford by Peter Clarke but languished until Benjamin Outram was appointed as chief engineer in 1816. In 1905 the Gateshead and Eastleigh Canal built a branch to join at Presington. Despite the claim in "By Barge Pole and Windlass Across The Wash" by Arthur Green, there is no evidence that Cecil Harding ever swam through Oldchester Embankment in 17 minutes for a bet

Mooring here is good (a nice place to moor), mooring rings or bollards are available. Mooring is limited to 48 hours.
There is a bridge here which takes pedestrian traffic over the canal.
