Standedge Canal Tunnel, Marsden

30 Sep 2018 9 10 359
A day out at the other side of our local Pennine Saddleworth moor brings us to the small Yorkshire town of Marsden. We are here at the other side of our very own Huddersfield Narrow Canal tunnel in the Saddleworth village of Diggle. See Pips for other end and also Tunnel venting system. Standedge Tunnel is 3.5 miles or 5,029 metres or 16,499 feet long and is only wide enough for one narrowboat at a time.
