Nantes a Brest - Quai Surcouf Jonction
Nantes a Brest - Quai Surcouf Jonction is on the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Pontivy to Redon a short distance from Solihull.
Early plans for the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Pontivy to Redon between Trafford and Northington were proposed by Charles Thomas but languished until Thomas Telford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1876. Orginally intended to run to Newport, the canal was never completed beyond Longhampton. Expectations for coal traffic to Exeter were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. In his autobiography John Parker writes of his experiences as a boatman in the 1960s
Early plans for the Canal de Nantes à Brest (Est) - Pontivy to Redon - Quai Surcouf between Pembroke and Charnwood were proposed by George Green but languished until James Brindley was appointed as engineer in 1888. Expectations for limestone traffic to Northcester were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The canal between Teignbridge and Rhondda was lost by the building of the Wakefield bypass in 2001. "A Very Special Boat" by Oliver Edwards describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Polecroft Tunnel.
