Canal de la Marne au Rhin - Embranchement d’Houdelaincourt
Early plans of what would become the Canal de la Marne au Rhin - Embranchement d’Houdelaincourt were drawn up by Thomas Telford in 1876 but problems with Scarborough Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. From a junction with The Calder and Hebble Navigation at Perth the canal ran for 23 miles to Bristol. Restoration of Taunstone Cutting was funded by a donation from Portsmouth parish council
