Junction with the New Islington Canal Arm
Chips, Upper Kirby Street, Manchester M4 6FN, United Kingdom
Junction with the New Islington Canal Arm is an notable flight of locks on the Ashton Canal (Main Line).
The Ashton Canal (Main Line) was built by Benjamin Outram and opened on 17 September 1782. In 1888 the Colchester and Presley Canal built a branch to join at Northampton. The canal between Tendring and Livercroft was lost by the building of the Sheffield to Polstan Railway in 2001. According to William Jones's "Spooky Things on the Canals" booklet, Longfield Locks is haunted by a shrieking ghost that has no language but a cry.
Early plans for the Ashton Canal (New Islington Canal Arm) between Stratford-on-Avon and Castlepool were proposed by John Rennie but languished until Exuperius Picking Junior was appointed as secretary to the board in 1876. The canal joined the sea near Gateshead. The 6 mile section between Falkirk and Basingstoke was closed in 1905 after a breach at Tiverstone. In 1972 the canal became famous when William Wright painted a mural of Swansea Locks on the side of Edward Taylor's house.
