- Huddersfield_Broad_Canal abstract "The Huddersfield Broad Canal (also known by its original name, Sir John Ramsden's Canal) is a wide-locked navigable canal in Yorkshire in northern England. The waterway is 3.75 miles (6 km) long and has 9 wide locks. It follows the valley of the River Colne and connects the Calder and Hebble Navigation at Cooper Bridge junction with the Huddersfield Narrow Canal at (or near) Aspley Basin in the centre of Huddersfield. Construction was authorised in 1774, and the canal opened two years later. It became part of a trans-Pennine route in 1811, with the opening of the Huddersfield Narrow Canal, which connected to Aspley Basin, but trade was hampered by the fact that the long narrowboats used on that canal could not use the shorter, wider locks of Ramsden's Canal. Goods were transhipped as Aspley Basin, and although shorter narrowboats were built, its success was overshadowed by the Rochdale Canal link to the Calder and Hebble Navigation at Sowerby Bridge, which had wide locks throughout. The canal passed into railway ownership in 1845, but continued to prosper into the 20th century. Railway ownership ceased in 1945, when it was bought by the Calder and Hebble Navigation, at which point the narrow canal over the Pennines was abandoned. It continued to carry commercial traffic, particularly coal for power stations, until 1953.Following the formation of British Waterways in 1962, it was designated as a cruiseway in 1968, which meant that it had a future in the leisure era. Use of the canal has increased significantly since the Hudderfield Narrow Canal was re-opened in 2001, as it is no longer a dead end. Many of the structures of the canal have been given Listed Building status, in recognition of their historic interest.".
