    E0051 Ashby Canal Exec Summary.Indd

    Ashby Canal Restoration Snarestone to Measham BUSINESS PLAN SUMMARY Leicestershire County Council Community Services Department May 2006 The Ashby Canal Restoration Project This project is to restore the Ashby Canal from its current terminus at Snarestone northwards for a distance of 4.5 km to a new canal wharf at Measham (Map 1). The power to acquire the necessary land and to construct and maintain the canal was provided in October 2005 when the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs confirmed the Leicestershire County Council (Ashby de la Zouch Extension) Order made under the powers of the Transport and Works Act 1992. In making the Order the Secretary of State noted that the scheme is consistent with national, regional and local policies, would contribute significantly to regeneration objectives and would produce considerable economic, environmental and social benefits. History The Ashby Canal was completed in 1804 and connected Moira in north western Leicestershire to the Coventry Canal at Bedworth. It was used primarily to carry coal from the Ashby Woulds mines to markets in the Midlands and the South. The northern reaches of the canal were closed between 1944 and 1966 due to mining subsidence but in recent years the feasibility of restoration has been established and is strongly supported by local communities as a means of regeneration. The project will follow on from the successful restoration (1999 – 2005) of over 2km of the Ashby Canal between Donisthorpe and Moira at ‘The Heart of the National Forest’. This award-winning length hosts the annual Moira Canal Festival, and in conjunction Left: Moira Furnace before restoration The proposed canal - Measham Station (c1950) Below: Moira Furnace after restoration (May 2006) 2 3 with the adjacent Moira Furnace Museum and Conkers (the National Forest Discovery Centre) is a popular leisure destination throughout the year.

    Leicestershire & Rutland County News May 2021 Issue 471 Chairman’s Column Writing for the May edition, I can’t believe how fast the year is flying by. I’m not sure if it is because of the long awaited relaxation of some restrictions that feel a bit like waiting for the long summer holiday when we were at school or just a sign of age! Now we all have smart hair cuts, can enjoy meals out, may have been to a pub and even looked at booking a holiday, I hope your WIs are able to plan some ‘get togethers’ either in a car park, garden or local park to plan some activities for yourselves now. Remember to follow guidelines and we can all stay well and meet indoors when allowed. There will be changes to our WIs and some Members will choose not to return at the moment but we can work with the Members we have to enjoy the friendship and fun we have all shared in the past. Unfortunately some of our WIs have had to be suspended for a variety of reasons and there are Members looking for new "homes", I am sure they will be warmly welcomed if they choose your WI to attend. The Membership Committee hope to revisit some of the areas where WIs have had to close in the near future to look at a restart. As I am one of the WI Advisers on the Membership Committee I said I wouldn’t do a separate piece for County News as you see enough of me every month but I often mention what we are doing in the Chairman’s Column and it is something I find very enjoyable.
