Cotswold Canals (Thames and Severn Canal - Wide/long lock section)
The Cotswold Canals (Thames and Severn Canal - Wide/long lock section) is a broad canal and is part of the Cotswold Canals (Thames and Severn Canal).
It runs for 1¾ furlongs through 1 lock from Bourne Bridge (where it joins the Cotswold Canals (Thames and Severn Canal - Main section)) to Bourne Mill Bridge (where it joins the Cotswold Canals (Thames and Severn Canal - Wide section)).
The maximum dimensions for a boat to be able to travel on the waterway are 90 feet long and 16 feet wide. The maximum headroom is not known. The maximum draught is not known.
This section including Bourne Lock was wide enough (15') to allow Severn Trows to get up to Bourne Boatyard, and long enough (90') to allow Thames Barges to get to Brimscombe Port.
This waterway is excluded by default from route planning with the following explanation: "under restoration"
