DESCRIPTION FROM
Area
'The construction of the Cromford Canal by William Jessop and Benjamin Outram, partners in the Butterley company, was completed in 1794. It is 14.5 miles long and joined Cromford with the Erewash Canal at Langley Mill ... The canal can be explored from the towpath between Cromford Wharf and Ambergate, a distance of just over five miles ... We manage the section from Cromford to Ambergate for recreation and wildlife. The Canal has a very rich and diverse wildlife running through the attractive Derwent Valley and part of it has been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest and Local Nature Reserve.'
