Grand Union Canal at Uxbridge
Looking north, the canal cuts across the south-eastern corner of this square. The towpath side, to the left, is wall to wall moored boats. To the right are some of the many new office buildings that line this section of canal replacing former canal-side industrial premises.

The Grand Union Canal near Uxbridge
This section of the Grand Union Canal from the River Thames at Brentford was opened in 1794. It was the first section of what was originally called the Grand Junction Canal. Its purpose was to provide a new, shorter and quicker transport route between London and Birmingham by connecting with a network of canals at Braunston near Daventry. When the canal reached Braunston in 1805 it cut 60 miles off the shortest alternative route.
This is just north of St John's Road. As you head out of Uxbridge there is much quiet countryside until Rickmansworth is reached. This part of the towpath is also on the London LOOP.
