The Haddiscoe Cut or New Cut is a canal in the English county of Norfolk and in The Broads National Park.). The cut was conceived as a way to provide a more direct route from Lowestoft to Norwich, and was built as part of a larger scheme which included the linking of the River Waveney to Oulton Broad and Lake Lothing. It was opened in 1833, but the new route was not a financial success, and it was sold to a railway developer in 1842. It remained in railway ownership until Nationalisation in 1948, and was damaged by floods in 1953. An attempt to close it in 1954 was resisted by local interests, resulting in it being repaired. It is now managed by the Environment Agency.

| - Der Haddiscoe Cut oder New Cut ist ein Kanal in der englischen Grafschaft Norfolk. Der Wasserweg sollte die Verbindung zwischen der Stadt Lowestoft an der Nordseeküste und Norwich deutlich abkürzen. Er wird seit Jahrzehnten in erster Linie touristisch von Sportbootfahrern genutzt, für die er die Flusssysteme des Waveney und des Yare ohne Befahren des Breydon Water verbindet. (de)
