A simulated flight along the route of the Derby Canal.

A tour along the route of the Derby canal, from the Erewash to the Trent and Mersey.

Thanks for doing this Mark. I've been desperate to understand the route of the canal through central Derby. This makes it abundantly clear.

MARC sorry!

Fantastic footage Marc, throughly enjoyed it, especially the section parallel to the old Nottingham Rd between the Cemetery and the Cricket Ground which is where I was born and grew up. Used to play around the disused canal when I was very young, good to see there are advanced plans to re-open it although looking at your footage there would have to be some major re-routes around current buildings. Thanks for creating and uploading it, much appreciated.

I really enjoyed the video. I once caught a stickleback with a fishing net when I was 7/8 years old by dipping a net into the lock at the end of the Derwent bridge near the old Derby bus station. I am researching the Cloud Trail which follows a section of the Derby Canal and have put some of my work onto www.melbournederbyshire.co.uk

Spent a lot of my childhood along the "cut" from Boulton Lane to Swakestone lock also from Boulton lane into town on the cycle path, Ironic I now own a narrow boat and would love to cruise along the Derby canal
