The Brighton Marina Act 1968 is an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, which is still in force. The act authorised the Brighton Marina Company to construct a marina and other works on land reclaimed from the sea approximately 2 miles east of the centre of Brighton.
The Act is divided into seven parts:
Subsection s. 55(1) of Part V states:
For the protection of the corporation the next following four sections of this Act shall unless otherwise agreed in writing between the Company and the corporation apply and have effect.
Subsection s. 59(1) of Part V states:
The Company shall not construct or erect, to the south of the cliff face, any work, building or structure to a greater height than the height, at the time of such construction or erection, of that part of the cliff face which lies immediately to the north thereof.
In 2006 Brighton & Hove City Council received legal advice that the council would not be acting unlawfully under Part V of the Act if they gave permission for the construction of the Outer Harbour development at the marina. [1]
The Bridgwater and Taunton Canal is a canal in the south-west of England between Bridgwater and Taunton, opened in 1827 and linking the River Tone to the River Parrett.

These schemes followed the approximate route eventually taken by the Bridgwater and Taunton Canal, but the canal was instead built as part of a plan to link Bristol to Taunton by waterway.
