This basin marks the end of a branch off a branch of the Grand Union Canal near the centre of Market Harborough. The original intention was that the canal would continue to Northampton, but this was never built. Today, the basin is surrounded by apartments, small business units and a pub - there is also a boat hire operation based here.
