Anglasweorc: Difference between revisions

The Anglasweorc runs north to south, with its northern terminus being the [[Vandarch]] and its southern terminus being [[Lake Roseney]]. Today, the course of the weorc is nearly the same as that of the [[Carolina-Grand Canal]], running north from Lake Roseney along the Cheshire River and Hartnell Creek up through the Vandarch, though the weorc at places curves inland away from the Canal. Historically, the Cheshire River's course diverged west approximately halfway between the Lake and Vandarch, and the Hartnell Creek had not been deepened or widened for navigation. Accordingly, a large expanse of land existed between the northern bend in the Cheshire and beginning of the Hartnell, which could be easily fordable prior to the creation of the Canal.
