St. Paul's Church, Slough
The Victorian church, which looks as if it dates from the last years of the C19, is on Stoke Road (the B416).

Grand Union Canal (Slough Arm)
The uninspiring end of the 1882-built Slough Arm of the Grand Union Canal to the east of Stoke Road in Slough, with the boat turning head basin in the foreground. The canal was built originally to convey bricks, and then gravel, to London. Later the canal was used to fill the brick and gravel pits with London's waste.

The remains of this old wharf structure are still here crumbling gradually.
There is a turning basin for boats just behind where I'm standing.

Slough canal basin
This is the end of the five-mile canal cul-de-sac known as the Slough Arm of the Grand Union Canal. It was one of the last canals to be built and opened in 1882 to serve the brickmaking industry.
The Arm ends rather abruptly at Stoke Road, as continuing to the originally planned terminus would have meant digging up lands owned by the Duke of Leeds and Eton College.
The last commercial traffic was carried in 1960, but plans to fill it in were opposed locally. The stretch was reopened in 1975 and has remained in use since, although there is little traffic.
