    Canal de Neufossé: The Canal de Neufossé is an artificial canal located in northern France, between the River Aa at Arques and the Canal d’Aire at Aire-sur-la-Lys. The canal is part of the Canal Dunkerque-Escaut and is approximately 18 kilometres long. The canal was built in 1760 to connect the River Lys to the River Aa, giving Lille and other inland cities a French route to the sea. The canal has a maximum height of 19 metres and a minimum height of 3 metres. The canal has a number of historic features, including three locks from the eighteenth century and a double lock from 1887 called the Ascenseur des Fontinettes.
