The Four Lifts now have 11 connections. Let's add some more.
Connection:
Brick architectureThe Four Lifts – The buildings housing the hydraulic machinery needed for operating the lifts, and the houses for the use of the operators are in brick. - The staff family homes were built using local materials: red brick and two types of blue stone for the façades. (Nomination file, p. 51)
Connection:
Industrial LandscapesThe Four Lifts – "Together with the Canal itself and its associated structures, they constitute a remarkably well preserved and complete example of a highly technical industrial landscape at the end of the 19th century." (OUV)
Connection:
Reinforced ConcreteThe Four Lifts – In 1894, after the completion of the masonry, the construction of the last three elevators was stopped following problems with the waterproofing of the channel between elevators number 3 and 4. The ground there was riddled with old coal mining and water was flowing into the mine galleries. It was necessary to establish a concrete basin, reinforced in places, with a thickness of between 15 and 20 centimetres over a length of 2,600 meters. (
