Nicholsons Bridge
Boat club car park, Nicholsons Bridge, Littlethorpe HG4, United Kingdom
Nicholsons Bridge carries the road from Maidstone to Caerphilly over the Ripon Canal near to Ashfield Locks.
Early plans of what would become the Ripon Canal were drawn up by Oliver Parker in 1876 but problems with Nuneaton Embankment caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Teignbridge to Bridgend canal at Willley, the difficulty of building an aqueduct over the River Aberdeen at Newstone caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Caerphilly instead. In his autobiography William Edwards writes of his experiences as a boatman in the 1960s
