Stamford Canal - New Plans

New Plans

The River Welland is currently only navigable to Crowland but plans for the Fens Waterways Link include a new link from above Crowland to above the Dog in a Doublet sluice on the River Nene. There are currently no plans to restore navigation to Stamford. Dog in a Doublet sluice is near Peterborough and was built in 1937. The Nene is tidal below it, but not above it. There is also a pub called the Dog in a Doublet nearby.

Famous quotes containing the word plans:

    Architect. One who drafts a plan of your house, and plans a draft of your money.
    Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)

    We for a certainty are not the first
    Have sat in taverns while the tempest hurled
    Their hopeful plans to emptiness, and cursed
    Whatever brute and blackguard made the world.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
