Narrowboat near Widewater Lock on the Grand Union Canal
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.
As you head out of Uxbridge there is much quiet countryside until Rickmansworth is reached. Widewater Lock is immediately to the north of Moorhall Road, just past Harefield Marina. This part of the towpath is also on the London LOOP.
