The Ashton holding basin on the Ribble Link part of the Lancaster Canal.
The Ribble link was the 'missing link' in the Lancaster Canal System. Britain's newest inland waterway, the four-mile Millennium Ribble Link connects the once-isolated Lancaster Canal with the main navigable system via a canalisation of the tidal Savick Brook. The Link runs around the outskirts of Preston and flows into the River Ribble, which itself connects with the Leeds & Liverpool Canal's Rufford Branch. It is the only canal in the UK built for leisure purposes, it is also tidal.
