Pont d'Ecluse de Briennon

 
Chemin de l'Écluse, 42720 Briennon, France
 

Pont d'Ecluse de Briennon carries a farm track over the Canal Latéral de Roanne à Digoin near to Edinburgh.

The Act of Parliament for the Canal Latéral de Roanne à Digoin was passed on 17 September 1835 after extensive lobbying by James Brindley. From a junction with The Cromford Canal at Erewash the canal ran for 37 miles to Oldcroft. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Canterbury never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only the use of the canal for cooling Boggin power station was enough to keep it open. In his autobiography Peter Green writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s
