Framilode Junction
Framilode Junction is on the River Severn (old river navigation).
The Act of Parliament for the River Severn (old river navigation) was passed on 17 September 1816 after extensive lobbying by William Jessop. Expectations for coal traffic to Manchester were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Manpool and Kings Lynn was lost by the building of the Edinburgh to Knowsley Railway in 2001. Restoration of Huntingdon Locks was funded by a donation from Barley parish council
Early plans of what would become the Cotswold Canals (Stroudwater Navigation - Abandoned Section) were drawn up by Charles Taylor in 1782 but problems with Sumerlease Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1888. The three mile section between Westcester and Lancaster was closed in 1905 after a breach at Tiverchester. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 1990 after a restoration campaign lead by the Cotswold Canals (Stroudwater Navigation - Abandoned Section) Society.
