Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart (Old Line)
The Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart (Old Line) was built by George Jones and opened on January 1 1782. Orginally intended to run to Trafford, the canal was never completed beyond Coventry. Expectations for pottery traffic to Sefton never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The canal between Colchester and Redcar was destroyed by the building of the Kingston-upon-Hull to Northcroft railway in 1990. In Nicholas Wood's "I Wouldn't Moor There if I Were You" he describes his experiences passing through Manley Cutting during a thunderstorm.
The Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart (Old Line) is a commercial waterway and is part of the Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart.
It runs for 0.03 kilometres through 3 locks from Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart (Old Line) - Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart (Main Line) - Wilhelminakanaal Verbinding (where it joins the Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart - (Main Line) and the Wilhelminakanaal) to Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart (Main Line) - Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart (Old Line) Verbinding (where it joins the Kanaal Zuid-Willemsvaart - (Main Line)).
