Oxford Canal east of Newbold on Avon, Warwickshire
The smart iron bridge carries the towpath across an arm on the left which is a remnant of the original canal built by Brindley and Simcock in the eighteenth century. This 300 metre arm is now used for moorings and by a boatyard. The straightened and shortened canal (1829-1834) engineered by Cubitt is seen here, looking west towards Newbold and Coventry.

Oxford Canal aqueduct over road, Rugby
This is the second of the two aqueducts referred to in Image, this one carrying the canal over a minor road. The cast iron bridge at the entrance to the arm serving Rugby Wharf is more prominent.

Oxford Canal entrance to arm to Rugby Wharf 1
A closer view of the entrance to the arm or branch serving Rugby Wharf. Photographs Image and Image show a progression towards this junction from the east. The boat is entering from the west; because of the angle of the junction it is easier for a boat from the east to go past the junction, turn and then approach from the west as Dabchick is. The cast iron bridge is one of those produced by the Horseley Ironworks circa 1828 in connection with the straightening of the canal described in Image

Bridge over entry to Rugby Branch
The Rugby Branch off the Oxford Canal is a little offshoot, about 350yds (320m) long, which branches off southwestwards from the parent canal and culminates these days in a boatyard. Canal boats are usually moored along its length. A graceful cast iron bridge spans its junction - it is numbered Bridge 53 according to the little plaque on the parapet, although there seems to be another Bridge 53 which spans the main canal a little further to the west.

Oxford Canal entrance to arm to Rugby Wharf 2
A slightly closer view than Image Just beyond the sign on the right is a turning place or winding hole in canal parlance. When coming from the east, passing the junction and turning here makes entering the arm easier. This winding hole is a fragment of the pre 1820s alignment of the canal which turned north at this point and contoured round the valley crossed by the aqueduct shown in Image The old alignment just north of the present course is now covered by an industrial estate.
