Laba diena.
Siuo metu darau foto serijas apie Londono kanalus.Ju yra 7 isviso -
Pradesim nuo Limehouse Cut ir Bow Back Rivers.Bet pirma siek tiek istorijos ir seip faktu :
Limehouse Cut.Foto 1-9.
Authorised by an Act of Parliament in 1766 (making it the oldest canal in London),it provides a short-cut from the River Thames at Limehouse Basin north-east to the River Lee Navigation, avoiding the tortuous curves of the lower reaches of the River Lee or Lea at Bow Creek.The Cut joins the Lea at Bromley-by-Bow.Before 1968 the Cut enjoyed its own direct link to the Thames,but this exit lock was replaced when a short length of new canal was constructed to link the Cut with the Regent's Canal Dock,now known as Limehouse Basin.
Bow Back Rivers.Foto 10-25.
The Bow Back Rivers are part of the River Lee in the London Borough of Newham,East London,and form a complex system of waterways.The River Lee was originally tidal as far as Hackney Wick,man-made changes to the River had changed this dramatically in the 9th century,and in 1110 a bridge was put in place at Bow.Over the ensuing centuries,the causeway that lead to the bridge was cut by a number of man-made channels made to power water driven tidal mills,such as those at Abbey Mills,and the still surviving Three Mills.Further improvements to the channels were carried out in 1930 by the River Lee (Flood Relief) Act.
