Canal in the west of England .... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpness_Canal
It is a man-made waterway designed for ships and boats to travel through, usually constructed to connect bodies of water or provide a shortcut on trade routes. Examples include the Suez Canal and the Panama Canal.
A narrow man-made channel called the Corinth Canal was made by the Greeks and completed in 1893. The canal slices through the Isthmus of Corinth, connecting the Gulf of Corinth with the Aegean Sea, providing a vital shipping route.

A silt ejector is a device used to remove silt, sand, and debris from water or slurry. It works by using centrifugal force to separate the solids from the liquid, allowing the clean liquid to be discharged. Silt ejectors are commonly used in industries such as mining, construction, and agriculture to help maintain the quality of water sources.
The Brownsover Arm actually came first. It was part of the original route of the northern section of the Oxford Canal, built in the late 18th century by James Brindley. An early canal engineer, he followed the contours of the land, avoiding the complexities of too many tunnels and embankments His routes meandered all of over the countryside, and were groundbreaking (literally) when first built. By the 1820s, when competition from the railways intensified, some canal companies sought to speed up commercial travel, and so ungraded their canals by straightening them. The North Oxford was one such canal. Where Brindley's old route was cut, truncated lengths like the Bownsover Arm were left. Some remained in use for many years, while others gradually silted up and disappeared. Anyone travelling the North Oxford today can see some of these lost arms where towpath bridges cross them.
