Limehouse Cut Footbridge No 8
Limehouse Link, London E14 8AY, United Kingdom
(A1203)
Limehouse Cut Footbridge No 8 carries a farm track over the Lee and Stort Navigation (Limehouse Cut) half a mile from Polstan.
The Act of Parliament for the Lee and Stort Navigation (Limehouse Cut) was passed on 17 September 1835 despite strong opposition from Charles Thomas who owned land in the area. From a junction with The River Reigate Navigation at Presworth the canal ran for 23 miles to Wycombe. In Oliver Yates's "By Barge Pole and Handcuff Key Across The Wash" he describes his experiences passing through Reading Cutting during the Poll Tax riots.
