Background and plan
editThis list has been transferred here from Canals of Great Britain. My plan is to do similar for all lists on that page to make it more readable. I think this page should ultimately list all aqueducts, even if they don't have a WP article. There can't be that many can there? I also think that each one should have the following information- aqueduct name, canal name, status (navigable, derelict, demolished etc), coordinates. Derek Andrews 00:46, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
- Before considering listing all canal aqueducts (and there are two dozen named ones in Birmingham alone) you would have to define aqueduct. Would you count a canal going over a stream? Over a footpath? Or only those given a name, and by whom? Even some of the named ones are little more than a large culvert. I think it best to stick to those notable enough to have an article. There are still plenty more that are worthy of being added as articles, e.g. those with listed building status.--Shantavira|feed me 13:21, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
Images and coordinates needed
editI've added coordinates to, and moved images into, the table. Please fill in the gaps, and remember to then add the same to the individual articles. Thank you.Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 16:14, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
Murty aqueduct
editShould Murtry aqueduct have an entry on this list. It doesn't have an article yet. It is at Great Elm, built around 1795, carried the Dorset and Somerset Canal over the river."Murtry Aqueduct". Images of England. English Heritage. Retrieved 2009-09-25.
- No, in common with many Wikipedia lists, this article is restricted to aqueducts with articles.--Shantavira|feed me 18:55, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
Should the Moss Hall and Shackerstone Aqueducts be on this list? If the reason is that they do not have an article of their own, should it be explained that this is an incomplete list? Robert — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rrcanfox (talk • contribs) 17:20, 30 August 2019 (UTC)
