To the right, the backs of houses on the Harrow Road. In the distance The Flora pub can just be made out. The factories to the left include, I believe, some subsequently demolished.

Houses by the Grand Union Canal, Paddington arm
Rather a dreary stretch of the canal, seen in dreary November weather. Much of the canalside between here and Paddington has been redeveloped in the last half-century, but before about 1950 much of it must have looked somewhat like this.
The houses face the Harrow Road, which at this point runs close to and parallel with the canal,
