North Pennine Ring, Canal ring system through the Pennines, United Kingdom.

The North Pennine Ring connects five major waterways across northern England, spanning 184 miles with 215 locks through diverse landscapes.

The formation of this canal network began in 1761 with the Bridgewater Canal, while the complete ring became accessible after the Rochdale Canal restoration in 2002.

The waterway network represents northern England's industrial legacy, linking major manufacturing centers through Manchester, Leeds, and Castleford.

Navigation authorities Canal and River Trust and Peel Holdings manage the waterways, providing essential information about lock operations and water levels.

The ring incorporates sections of the Bridgewater Canal, Leeds and Liverpool Canal, Aire and Calder Navigation, Calder and Hebble Navigation, and Rochdale Canal.
