Wendover Arm: Houses line the North Bank of the Canal at Aston Clinton
Note the brown pile of vegetation. Several such piles occur along the bank as a result of management activities.

Wendover Arm: The Reed-fringed Canal and adjacent Housing at Aston Clinton
When the current work on the Canal east of Drayton Beauchamp open the water level here is likely to rise. I wonder if there is a danger of the bank being inadequate to prevent leakage into some of the gardens, which are at a lower level.

A Mallard Duck and Ducklings on the Wendover Arm
Because there is only a tall hedge on the north side of the disused canal at this point plenty of sunlight reaches the water. As a result the water-edge vegetation is more varied and there are more water plants growing in the clear flowing water than in the shadier reaches of the canal. Wildlife seems happier here than in the parts of the canal which are heavily shaded by tall hedges on both sides, and is very much more plentiful and varied than in the navigable parts of the canal, where the silt is regularly churned up by passing boats and the water is so opaque that plant life cannot grow underwater.

Wendover Arm: The Disused Canal and Towpath West of Bridge No 7
On the canal side the tall hedge is backed by a field at this point – but just round the bend in the distance a modern housing estate backs onto the disused canal. For instance see Image
On the towpath side the hedge is vigorously trimmed – and a few years ago there were major engineering works on the other side of the hedge – when the water company laid a new pipeline from one of their pumping stations Image

A Moorhen on the Wendover Arm of the Grand Union Canal
One of the delights of the disused section of the Wendover Arm is that there is a good footpath close to clear running water – which makes it an excellent place to watch the various species of water birds – and even get close enough to take modest photographs of the birds with a pocket-sized camera.

Wendover Arm: Looking West towards Wellonhead Bridge (No 7)
The tree is heavily infested with ivy and long festoons of it hang from the branch over the canal.
