Construction site by the Huddersfield Narrow Canal
Until relatively recently this section of towpath was inaccessible between a tunnel and a fence. It was a pleasure to walk on a path that was new to me in an area I grew up in.

The spire is that of the Grade II* listed Church of St Thomas, in Manchester Road. The church was built to the designs of architect George Gilbert Scott and is further described at this http://list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1134950.

Huddersfield Narrow Canal approaching Longroyd Bridge
I believe the construction may well be student accommodation. The canal at this point is narrow and there is a ladder descending into the water in the distance suggesting this was probably a lock. The restored canal had previously been in a long tunnel with a lock where it appeared into the open air. The canal has now been exposed for more of its length and the lock appears to have been moved closer to Chapel Hill.

Huddersfield Narrow Canal and River Colne
The canal and river are in reasonably close proximity along the Colne Valley and even swap sides via aqueducts at least twice. At this point it is possible to see the canal on the right and the river on the left. This part of the towpath was inaccessible for many years when the canal was derelict and behind a large mill. This was the first time I had ever walked this stretch, although I lived in Huddersfield for 18 years.

Huddersfield Narrow Canal from Manchester Road
Seen from the A62. This is where the canal emerges from a long tunnel under what was the works of Sellers Engineers. The company was to move to new premises in the spring of 2011 and a major waterfront redevelopment is to occur. This may see the canal re-exposed. Somebody please photograph this if it happens!
The canal was re-exposed and has been photographed - Image
