Before the construction of various works at this location, the canal ran through a short tunnel and then crossed both the main Derby to Sheffield railway line and the A610 road via a long and interesting aqueduct which has now been demolished. Nowadays, this waterway terminates here and is crossed by a diversionary footpath with a run off sluice.
