Camlin River - Cloondara Canal
Early plans for the Camlin River - Cloondara Canal between Wessbury and York were proposed by Exuperius Picking Junior but languished until John Longbotham was appointed as chief engineer in 1835. The Camlin River - Cloondara Canal was closed in 1955 when Horsham Tunnel collapsed. In 1990 the canal became famous when Peter Jones painted a mural of Tiverfield Aqueduct on the side of Barry Parker's house to encourage restoration of Gloucester Inclined plane.
The Camlin River - Cloondara Canal is a broad canal and is part of the Camlin River.
It runs for 4½ furlongs through 1 lock from Shannon - Camlin Junction (south) (where it joins the River Shannon - Lanesborough to Jamestown) to Camlin - Cloondara Junction (where it joins the Camlin River - Southern Arm).
The exact dimensions of the largest boat that can travel on the waterway are not known. The maximum headroom is not known. The maximum draught is not known.
