The Oxford Canal
Introduction
The photograph on this page of The Oxford Canal by David Purchase as part of the Geograph project.
The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.
There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

Properties such as these, adjacent to the canal, are no doubt priced at a premium. Unlike properties by a river, they don't even have a serious flood risk: excess water in canals flows away long before it overtops the banks.
