Summary[edit]

Description
English: Nottingham Canal, Trowell In common with many similar canals, the Nottingham Canal closed to commercial traffic before the Second World War. Much of the route, however, can still be easily traced and some stretches still have water - although not here. The canal connected the River Trent at Nottingham with Langley Mill, effectively duplicating the parallel Erewash Canal, which still remains as a leisure waterway. Proposals to restore the canal came to nothing; in Nottingham itself the route has been completely obliterated by modern development and further north it has been badly affected by mining subsidence.
