The Remains of the Grantham Canal at Lady Bay, West Bridgford
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.

The Grantham Canal
This canal once linked the River Trent to Grantham, a distance of 33 miles. It was closed in 1936. Most of the waterway still contains water and is used both as a wildlife refuge and as a recreational resource for walkers, cyclists and horse riders. There is a flourishing restoration society http://www.granthamcanal.com/ which is aiming to open the canal to boats once again. This stretch is bounded by the busy A52 and West Bridgford to the right and housing in Lady Bay on the left. These houses are on Ropsley Crescent.
