Both excellent sites - thanks Phil. They both have information on all our local canals (as well as many more).

I've been wombling the net once more and found two sites that may be of interest for canal lovers/historians.

http://easyweb.easynet.co.uk/jim.shead/History19.html

That takes you to a brief history of the canal and clicking on "Priestly's Navigable Rivers and Canals" gives more information dating from 1831

http://www.canals.btinternet.co.uk/canals/nutbrook.htm

A little more in depth with a little gem that is was made wide enough to take the Trent barges.

regards Phil
