Dukinfield Junction is the name of the canal junction where the Peak Forest Canal, the Ashton Canal and the Huddersfield Narrow Canal meet. It is adjacent to Portland Basin and the names are often used as synonyms by boaters whilst locals refer only to Portland Basin. Strictly speaking, Portland Basin is the wide area on the main line of the canal. The arm under the junction bridge and the aqueduct over the River Tame were built by the Ashton Canal and the junction with the Peak Forest canal was historically at the southern end of the aqueduct. The area has been designated as a conservation area by Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council. -Adapted from Wikipedia.
