River Nene
Wisbech
Cambridgeshire

The navigable river Nene extends from the junction with the Northampton Arm of the Grand Union Canal to the mouth of the river on the Wash at Crab's Hole. The navigable river is 88 miles (142 km) long and has 38 locks.

Peterborough (31 miles inland) was the tidal limit until the lock and sluice were built at Dog-in-a-Doublet in 1937, a further five miles towards the sea. The Middle Level Navigations connect to the Nene at Stanground Lock, along a short arm from the river, just outside in Peterborough. There is also a 0.6 mile arm - The West Bridge Arm - in Northampton, which has been kept navigable.
