Distances between locks and bridges on the Leeds & Liverpool Canal. I can't remember which site I found this info from, if it belongs to you please email me and I will provide a link.
This was originally an extract from the Edward Baine's Directory of Leeds & District, year unknown but will be 19th century so copyright has expired.
The distances will still be fairly accurate. Amendments have been made to bring it up to date.
A furlong (flg) = one-eighth of a mile, 220 yards, 660 feet or 201 metres, so now you know. ;)
A printer-friendly version of this page is also available.
