Bucklandwharf

The settlement of Bucklandwharf is at the eastern end of the village of Aston Clinton. The dyke between the fields and the houses is the Wendover Arm of the Grand Union canal. This section is partly in water but is disconnected from the rest of the canal system so is not navigable, though restoration work is afoot on this arm. The prominent white building was a pub, The New Inn, up to about 20 years ago, but is now home to a company called Homesitters. Pitstone Hill rises in the background.
