Saltisford canal arm, Warwick
An arm of the Warwick & Birmingham Canal, built in the 1790s and now part of the Grand Union Canal. The Saltisford wharf was the original terminus of the canal. It opened in 1799 and encouraged the industrial development of Warwick. By the 1980s the Saltisford arm was abandoned, part had been built on, and the rest was threatened by development. It was rescued by volunteers, who formed the Saltisford Canal Trust, which now manages the site. https://www.saltisfordcanal.co.uk/heritage/saltisford-history/

Saltisford Arm, Warwick
This stretch of canal was from 1800 the approach to the terminus of the Warwick and Birmingham Canal. It brought coal to supply Britain's first gasworks Image A short connection to the Warwick and Napton Canal created a more direct route between Birmingham and London than had existed before: it became part of the Grand Union Canal. Now a spur, the Saltisford Arm is managed by a trust as a haven for residential boats.
