词条 | Cusher River |
释义 |
A short distance south of Portadown is the start of the Newry Canal inland navigation. Here the canal is between two rivers: the Cusher River and the Upper River Bann. The Cusher River supplemented water to the lower part of the system.[2] The Point of Whitecoat is where three waterways meet: the Bann, the Cusher River and the Newry Canal, the first inland canal in the British Isles.[3] HistoryIn the 19th century there were extensive flax mills, as well as flour, oat and corn meal mills on the Cusher River in the Tandragee area.[4] PollutionIn June 2008, at Tandragee, hundreds of trout and roach died after pollution was released into the Cusher River[5] See also
