Houses at Common Moor
Just north of Common Moor lock, these houses are on a brownfield site, former industrial premises. Being canalside they are probably expected to attract premium prices.

The Grand Union Canal near Common Moor Lock
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 the view from just east of Common Moor Lock near Croxley.
