Purpose | The aims of the Trust are to promote the full restoration and appropriate development of the Chesterfield Canal, and to campaign for the construction of the Rother Valley Link, a navigable waterway to join the Chesterfield Canal to the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation. |
Services | Amongst other activities we run two trip boats (one in Retford, the other in Chesterfield); we run Work Parties on the canal on most Sundays and Thursdays; we have an 80-year old working boat, Python, that we will use as a Learning Boat; we have a promotional trailer, the James Brindley, that attends events and town centres throughout the year; we are rebuilding and extending Hollingwood Lock House and turning it into a local community hub and we are building the first new Cuckoo boat (unique to the canal) for nearly 80 years. In addition there are regular meetings, social events, a Festival etc. |
