Competition from rail and later road forced many canals into
closure, and a large section of the old system seemed doomed to
crumble away into terminal decay. Then came a new industry: the
canal leisure industry, and with it the birth of the restoration
movement. This final volume in the Anatomy of Canals series looks
at what has been achieved and how the new compares with the old.
Cities such as Brimingham have now been won over and have made the
old canals part of a lively rejuvenation programme, while a new
generation of engineers has produced such marvels as the Falkirk
Wheel.
