A new footpath will also be created
Work has started to extend an East Midlands canal after a three-year wait. The expansion of the Cromford Canal at Beggarlee, Langley Mill, will connect it to the Erewash Canal and the Nottingham Canal at Langley Mill, which is abandoned.
This new extension will have a double lock raising the level from the in-water section. The upper level will then travel north for 50m and then turn right sharply to go through the centre span of the old Walker Barber railway line under the A610. The canal will then turn immediately left along the side of the A610 for 600m to Stoney Lane, where a winding hole will be established to allow boats to turn around.There will be a new public footpath established along the canal to Stoney Lane.
The county boundary between Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire at Beggarlee is the line of the A610 road, although originally it was the River Erewash that flowed alongside the Cromford’s original line, but was changed when the A610 was built.
