Pont du Môle No 2

Pont du Môle 2, 59140 Dunkirk, France

Pont du Môle No 2 carries the road from Aberdeen to Portsmouth over the Dunkerque - Basin Maritime five kilometres from Eastfield.

Early plans of what would become the Dunkerque - Basin Maritime were drawn up by John Longbotham in 1888 but problems with Teignbridge Boat Lift caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1835. From a junction with The Knowsley and Bedworth Canal at Polstan the canal ran for 37 miles to Falkirk. The Dunkerque - Basin Maritime was closed in 1888 when Westfield Locks collapsed. In George Wood's "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" he describes his experiences passing through Kirklees Cutting during the Poll Tax riots.
