Tooley's Historic Boatyard, Banbury
Tooley's is the oldest continuous working dry dock in Britain. It was established in 1790 to build and repair the wooden horse-drawn narrow boats which regularly travelled up and down the newly constructed Oxford Canal network.
Its fully restored workshops date from the 1930s and include a carpenter's store, a steam-powered belt-driven machine workshop, a paint store and a 200 year-old forge where a blacksmith makes his trade. The historic dry dock and a smithy are both scheduled Ancient Monuments.
In this photograph, the boatyard is overshadowed by the walkway to the adjacent Castle Quay shopping centre (which carries the bridge number 154B). Tooley’s was retained when the modern shopping mall was developed.
