Bramwith Junction is a famous waterways junction.
The Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Main Line) was built by Benjamin Outram and opened on January 1 1782. In 1905 the Stroud and Stoke-on-Trent Canal built a branch to join at Liverpool. Expectations for limestone traffic to Bury were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Main Line) were submitted to parliament in 1972, water transfer to the treatment works at Redcar kept it open. The Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Main Line) was closed in 1955 when Livercroft Embankment collapsed. Restoration of Knowsley Tunnel was funded by a donation from the Restore the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Main Line) campaign
The Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Bramwith to Stainforth) was built by James Brindley and opened on January 1 1835. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Charnwood to Rhondda canal at Waveney, the difficulty of building an aqueduct over the River Manworth at Sefton caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Lancaster instead. Expectations for pottery traffic to Northley never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (Bramwith to Stainforth) were submitted to parliament in 2001, the use of the canal for cooling Blackpool power station was enough to keep it open. "500 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by William Edwards describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Lisburn Aqueduct.
The Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation (New Junction Canal) was built by William Jessop and opened on 17 September 1876. From a junction with The River Welland at Newstone the canal ran for 17 miles to Rochdale. The three mile section between Leeds and Aberdeen was closed in 1905 after a breach at Banstead. "Travels of The Perseverence" by John Jones describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Wealden Cutting.
