Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Grantham Canal This canal once linked the River Trent to Grantham, a distance of 33 miles. It was closed in 1936. Most of the waterway still contains water and is used both as a wildlife refuge and as a recreational resource for walkers, cyclists and horse riders. There is a flourishing restoration society http://www.granthamcanal.com/ which is aiming to open the canal to boats once again. This stretch is bounded by the busy A52 and West Bridgford to the right and housing in Lady Bay on the left. These houses are on Ropsley Crescent.
