Tonight, settle in as Frank takes you along the Pocklington Canal — a still, nine-and-a-half-mile stretch of water moving through nine locks in the East Riding of Yorkshire, connecting a small market town to the River Derwent.

This canal doesn't rush. It never did. The story of how it came to exist is itself a slow accumulation — of proposals set aside, surveys completed and forgotten, engineers who vanished from the record, and landowners whose interests quietly shaped everything. From the earliest ideas of 1765 to the first spade in the ground nearly fifty years later, the Pocklington Canal arrived at its own pace, in its own time.

Frank traces that long, unhurried history through candlelit meetings in market towns, the wide flat skies of the Yorkshire Derwent valley, and the careful calculations of engineers like George Leather Jr. and William Chapman — men who knew how water moved through this land and spent years persuading others to let it flow in a new direction.

This is a bedtime podcast for deep sleep — calm, gentle, and slow. No drama, no urgency. Just a quiet voice, a quiet canal, and all the time in the world. Ideal as a sleep aid for anyone who struggles to switch off, or simply wants something restful to drift away to at the end of the day. A calming episode to help you relax and fall asleep.
