The Huddersfield Narrow Canal at the Standedge Tunnel, Yorkshire

Huddersfield Narrow Canal

The Huddersfield Narrow Canal is an inland waterway in the West Riding of Yorkshire and southern Lancashire, which runs just under twenty miles from Huddersfield to Ashton-under-Lyne. It crosses the Pennines by means of seventy-four locks and the Standedge Tunnel.

Operation ceased on the canal in the 1960s, but after restoration work the canal was fully re-opened to navigation in 2001, if for leisure craft, not its original industrial transport. (Read more)
