Not much left of this canal now. Minor roads have been built over it (I took this photo from one such road). A plaque says there's some kind of restoration society for this canal, but not sure how far they are getting! The canal joins the Trent in between Notts Forest and The Environment Agency offices, the lock at this point still appears to be in working order.
