The Barnsley Canal ran for 14.5 miles (23.3 km), from Barnby Basin, to a junction with the Aire and Calder Navigation. The canal was closed in 1953. Work is underway to re-open the canal as a leisure waterway, but some diversions will need to be created. In the meantime, the towpath remains a nice level trail.
