Oxford Canal at Sowe Common

This is a reach of the canal that has been straightened out since it was first built. The old loop to the south which it replaced has almost completely been filled in and lost. This is the view from the Shilton Lane overbridge and is a repeat of David's Image from the summer of 2006.
