Strabane Canalとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Strabane Canal is a canal in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. In 1791 an Act was passed authorising the construction of a 6.4 km (4 mi) canal from the tidal waters of Lough Foyle at Leck, some 16 km (10 mi) upstream from Derry, to Strabane. It only had two locks, called 'Crampsies' and 'Devines'. It was constructed in 1792 at an expense of £12,000, defrayed by a grant from the Commissioners of Inland Navigation, aided by the Marquess of Abercorn.
