Description
The Grantham Canal aqueduct over the River Smite, located approximately 800 metres south-west of Long Clawson Bridge, is a late 18th-century structure made of brick. It features a single-span basket arch constructed with three courses of brick voussoirs and has deep swept sides that function as buttresses. The arch is partly collapsed. The canal was authorized in 1793 and opened in 1797, with this section built by James Green, a surveyor employed by Lord Middleton of Wollaton Hall. The aqueduct is also situated in the parish of Clawson, Hose and Harby, in Leicestershire.
