Talk:Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Number of Locks

According to the IWA site, [1] there are 13 locks along the navigation. Can anyone confirm if this is the case?

[edit] Chunker

"The word chunker derives from the Chelmer and Blackwater. A chunker is a wooden channel or pipe built to take streams beneath the Navigation. This word has so far not been found in any dictionaries; it may be unique to the C&B and was apparently in use when the canal was built. They were so called because they were made from chunks of wood."

I've removed this for the following reasons 1 it actualy says in it that the word not been found in any dictionary 2 It makes little sense 3 it is irelevent Struds
