Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Entrance to Shobnall Basin, Burton-upon-Trent. This narrow entrance is into a marina and the headquarters of Jannel Cruisers who have been hiring boats out since 1973. The basin was originally the eastern end of the Bond End Canal to the Trent, much used by the breweries, which included one 3ft 9in drop lock. Connection with the Trent and Mersey (the Burton section was complete by 1770) was not allowed until 1794 - a long (and typical of the times) wrangle best read about on Jannel's own excellent and fascinatiing canal history webpage [1].
