de Trent-Mersey-Kanal 150,5 km langer narrow canal durch die englischen Midlands, der die Flüsse Trent und Mersey verbindet. Auf ersten Plänen 1755 folgte der Bau in den Jahren 1766-1777. Zu den technischen Bauwerken des Kanals gehören neben 76 Schleusen das Hebewerk bei Anderton und der Harecastle Tunnel., der ursprünglich aus zwei Röhren bestand, von denen der mit 2633m geringfügig längere Telford Tunnel noch offen ist.
en Trent and Mersey Canal 93.3-mile long narrow canal (except for its extremities which are a wide canal) through the Midlands of England linking the River Trent at Derwent Mouth near Shardlow and the River Mersey. First ideas for a canal put forward in 1755 were followed by its actual construction in 1766-1777. Besides 76 locks the canal prides itself on having the Anderton Lift and the Harecastle Tunnel, originally consisting of two parallel tunnels of which the longer Telford Tunnel 2,926 yards) is still navigable.
