Bristol Harbour (Bristol)

United Kingdom / England / Bristol
 water, harbour

Nicknamed the Floating Harbour as the water level remains virtually constant and unaffected by tides. It was formed in the early 19th century by gating off a section of the river, and digging a bypass channel. Much of the engineering works were carried out by French prisoners of war.
