Der Derby Canal war ein 14 Meilen (23 km) langer Kanal in der englischen Grafschaft Derbyshire. Er verband die Stadt Derby mit dem Fluss Trent und dem dort parallel dazu gebauten Trent-and-Mersey-Canal im Süden und dem im Norden. Nördlich von Derby hatte er einen Zweigkanal nach , wo als Zubringer die gleichzeitig gebaute fünf Kilometer lange Pferdebahn Derby Canal Railway anschloss. Gebaut wurde der Kanal 1793 bis 1796. Sein anspruchsvollstes Bauwerk war der Aquädukt über einen vom Fluss Derwent abgeleiteten Mühlgraben südlich von Derby, die weltweit erste nicht aus Stein, sondern aus Gusseisen gebaute Kanalbrücke. 1802, 1812 und 1930 zeigten sich dort Schwachstellen, die jeweils mit dicken Holzbalken ausgebessert wurden. Der Derby Canal hatte neun Schleusen zwischen Erewash Canal und Trent-and-Mersey-Canal, Eine Treppe von drei Schleusen von diesem herab zum Trent, eine Treppe von vier Schleusen im Zweigkanal nach Little Eaton und eine Schleuse in der Anbindung des oberen Derwent. Das Höhenprofil hatte einen Scheitelbereich nördlich von Derby und einen zwischen Aquädukt und Südende. 1817 wurde die südliche Anbindung gekappt, nachdem die Betreibergesellschaft des Trent-and-Mersey-Canals, die vorher den Bau des Derbykanals zu verhindern gesucht hatte, durch überhöhte Mautgebühren ihre Nutzung herabgedrückt hatte. Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts trieb die Konkurrenz der Eisenbahn mehrere Kanalgesellschaften der Region in den Konkurs; der Derbykanal konnte sich halten. 1908 wurde der Zweigkanal nach Little Eaton aufgeben, ebenso wie die Pferdebahn dort. Erst 1964 beendete die Kanalgesellschaft mit amtlicher Erlaubnis auch den Betrieb des restlichen Kanals. Mehrere Brücken und Reste einiger Schleusen sind noch erhalten. Der Aquädukt wurde 1971 abgerissen. 1994 wurde die Derby and Sandiacre Canal Society gegründet, die sich seitdem um die Restaurierung der Hinterlassenschaften bemüht. (de) The Derby Canal ran 14 miles (23 km) from the Trent and Mersey Canal at Swarkestone to Derby and Little Eaton, and to the Erewash Canal at Sandiacre, in Derbyshire, England. The canal was authorised by an Act of Parliament in 1793 and was fully completed in 1796. It featured a level crossing of the River Derwent in the centre of Derby. An early tramroad, known as the Little Eaton Gangway, linked Little Eaton to coal mines at Denby. The canal's main cargo was coal, and it was relatively successful until the arrival of the railways in 1840. It gradually declined, with the gangway closing in 1908 and the Little Eaton Branch in 1935. Early attempts at restoration were thwarted by the closure of the whole canal in 1964. Since 1994, there has been an active campaign for restoration spearheaded by the Derby and Sandiacre Canal Trust and Society. Loss of the Derwent crossing due to development has resulted in an innovative engineering solution called the Derby Arm being proposed, as a way of transferring boats across the river. (en) |
