Over the past few decades, there has been a renewed interest in inland waterways, and this has led to the restoration of many waterways. The book covers twenty-one such waterways and highlights the important role that voluntary organizations like the Inland Waterways Association have played in the restoration process. These organizations have worked both independently and in collaboration with other organizations such as the British Waterways Board and local authorities.

Waterways Restored
‘Waterways Restored’, a book published in 1974, offers a historical perspective on the restoration efforts of many canals and rivers that had become unnavigable. Although it may seem dated now, it remains an interesting read for anyone interested. The book delves into the work required for restoration, such as dredging and reconstruction of locks and bridges. It also acknowledges the contributions of voluntary workers and discusses the costs and sources of funding needed for restoration. Furthermore, it relates the recent history of waterways to present-day issues.
