Winding hole on the Cromford Canal, Langley Mill
ECP&DA moorings and a winding hole for boats visiting Langley Mill. The Cromford Canal opened in 1794, mostly to carry coal. Most of the canal was abandoned in 1994 and all of it in 1962. This section was restored by ECP&DA during 1972-3, to serve as moorings at the top of the Erewash Canal.
