Weedon Bec: Navigation Way

Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 3 May 2015

This new housing development is not shown on currently available satellite imagery which shows industrial buildings on the site. The road follows the course of the long lost canal spur from the main Grand Union into the former ordnance depot, hence the name. One cannot help but feel that an opportunity to develop a major tourist and canal attraction by reinstating the link was missed here.
