More about this scene
In 1795, the Wisbech Canal was cut along the course of the Well Stream; thus providing communication with Ely, Cambridge and the other local towns, via the network of inland waterways that existed at that time. Within a hundred years, the canal was on its last legs, as the railways and the Wisbech to Upwell Tramway in particular became more popular.
