Coventrykanaal | 65 km lang narrow canal in de Engelse
Midlands tussen Coventry en Fradley. Nadat reeds in 1768 een kanaalmaatschappij
was opgezet duurde het nog tot 1789 voordat het kanaal over het hele traject
doorgaand kon worden bevaren. Het kanaal bestaat uit een van het overige netwerk van kanalen afgesneden (detached) gedeelte, dat is aangesloten aan het Trent & Mersey Canal, en een hoofdroute die met het Ashby- en het Oxford Canal is verbonden. Beide delen zijn via het Birmingham & Fazeley Canal (along route of Coventry Canal) verbonden. Samen met deze, het Oxford Canal, het Grand Union Canal en het Stratford Canal maken zij deel uit van de zog. Warwickshire Ring. |

Coventry-Kanal | 65 km langer narrow canal in den englischen
Midlands, der von Coventry nach Fradley führt. Nachdem 1768 eine
Kanalgesellschaft gegründet wurde, dauerte es bis 1789, bis der Kanal
auf der ganzen Strecke befahrbar war. Der Kanal besteht aus einer nördlichen, vom Hauptstrang abgetrennten Strecke (detached portion), der an den Trent & Mersey-Kanal und dem Hauptkanal, der mit dem Ashby- und dem Oxford-Kanal anschließt. Beide sind durch den Birmingham & Fazeley Canal (along route of Coventry Canal) verbunden. Zusammen mit diesem, dem Oxford Canal, dem Grand Union Canal und dem Stratford Canal bildet er den sog. Warwickshire Ring. |
