Winding hole, Grantham Canal
Viewed from the towpath on the West Bridgford side of the canal at Gamston Bridge. Winding holes, wider semi circular basins, were provided along canals to allow the long narrow boats space to turn round. The word is correctly pronounced with a short "i" to rhyme with "tinned", it derives from the practice of using the prevailing wind to assist with the turn.

Obstruction at Gamston Bridge
This is Bridge number 4A, carrying the Nottingham bound carriageway of Radford Road over the Grantham Canal. It is high enough to allow craft to pass underneath, that is if there wasn't a large sewerage pipe crossing just above water level. The metal structures which look like some sort of turning device are to stop people walking on the pipe.
