The Third Duke of Bridgewater (The Canal Duke), through his agent John Gilbert embarked  from 1759 onwards on a system of underground canals. On four levels they accessed a vast coalfield to the north and west, over time being regarded as one of the wonders of the engineering world. The canals branched out to draw coal from the workings of over 35 collieries, doing so until 1887. From Worsley Delf eventually over 52 miles of canals were driven on four levels. The system was last maintained and regularly inspected in 1968 as it continued to drain modern collieries to the west. Speaker Alan Davies was involved in the 1999 feasibility study along with the Mines Rescue service, he produced the only colour film ever produced of the canals during the survey. Bringing things up to date 2018-19 saw restoration of Worsley Delph incorporating interpretation boards and artwork.
