Описание: THE FEEDER CANAL WAS BUILT BETWEEN 1804 AND 1809 AS PART OF THE BRISTOL FLOATING HARBOUR SCHEME. IT WAS BUILT TO FEED WATER INTO THE FLOATING HARBOUR TO MAINTAIN WATER LEVELS AND ALSO TO PROVIDE A LINK TO THE TIDAL RIVER AVON AT CREWES HOLE. INDUSTRY GREW UP ALONG THE CANAL STARTING WITH THE GREAT WESTERN COTTON FACTORY. MY GREAT GRANDFATHER WORKED AT THE COTTON WORKS AS DID MY GRANDMOTHER AND MANY OTHER WOMEN IN BARTON HILL. MY GRANDFATHER WORKED AT JOHN LYSAGHT'S SILVERTHORNE LANE WORKS. THE FEEDER CANAL CLOSED TO COMMERCIAL TRAFFIC IN 1970 AND THE DEMISE OF ALL THE INDUSTRIES FOLLOWED. TODAY THE FEEDER CANAL IS A VITAL PARK OF A WATERWAY NETWORK FROM THE RIVER SEVERN ALL THE WAY TO RIVER THAMES AND LONDON VIA THE KENNET AND AVON CANAL.
