Denton Slipway

Denton Slipway is a boat-launching facility located at Denton Wharf on the Grantham Canal. It allows small boats to be put into the canal and is accompanied by parking facilities and a picnic site.

The slipway was restored in the late 1980s to early 1990s and received a GCRS award for that restoration work, making it one of the notable past successes along the canal. The site sits close to Denton Bridge (No.

64/B65), one of the canal's original structures from the 1790s and listed as being of special architectural interest.

Nearby, the Denton Feeder connects the canal to Denton Reservoir, one of two reservoirs built specifically to supply water to the Grantham Canal. The Grantham Canal Society lists the slipway among its key restoration projects.
