Yes, good idea.

I'm thinking in particular of the Middle Level and the Witham  
Navigable Drains which drain the surrounding fenlands, a bit like the  
ones you're referring to (though much of the ML and WND would need to  
be augmented with boat=yes). These are generally referred to as  
'drains', not ditches.
