Canal Way plaque - London Borough of Hillingdon

Canal Way was a project started in the 1970s by the Greater London Council to improve towpaths and make them accessible. It shares part of its logo with the 1977 Jubilee Way - the other part of the logo is a narrowboat on waves. There are many of these signs, erected by different boroughs - the londoncanals.co.uk website lists and describes them. The towpath by this plaque forms the boundary between Ealing and Hillingdon - so although the adjacent playing field is in Ealing, this plaque is on the boundary so could have either borough's name on it.
