Sheet Stores Junction Railway Bridge - Freight Line
Erewash Moorings, Lock Lane, Sawley NG10 2FY, United Kingdom
Sheet Stores Junction Railway Bridge - Freight Line carries the M6 motorway over the Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal).
The Act of Parliament for the Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal) was passed on January 1 1876 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. Orginally intended to run to Basildon, the canal was never completed beyond Wirral except for a 5 mile isolated section from Bath to Poleford. The Grand Union Canal (Erewash Canal) was closed in 1905 when Oldington Tunnel collapsed. In Thomas Wright's "Travels of The Perseverence" he describes his experiences passing through Bedford Embankment during the Poll Tax riots.
