Inland Waterways Protection Society (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Inland Waterways Protection Society (IWPS) is a British organisation founded in 1958 to work for the restoration of the canal system. Its members carried out surveys of canals and produced reports in support of their retention when much of the canal network was under threat. Following official support for use of the canals for leisure activities in 1967, the Society have concentrated their efforts on the restoration and operation of Bugsworth Basin, located at the southern end of the Peak Forest Canal, which was one of the first canals that they surveyed in 1958.
