Cycling the Grand Union

West Drayton - Milton Keynes return. Tue-Wed 24-5 Jul 2012
 
 West Drayton, close to my first close encounter with a very prickly bush when I tripped carrying the bike down some steps

 The canal banks used to be lined with small factories, but most of these are now replaces by large blocks of lfats

 as this no doubt will be shortly

 a fine restored bridge

 

 

 Linda does some map reading

 a fairly isolated mooring

  Many locks have nicely built cottages
 
a typical canal building, simple and precise 

One of only two swing bridges we saw on the trip 

The cows were making a lot of noise as we passed this farm 

The sun was getting lower, it had been the hottest day of the year 

 

It was probably my sweat that had steamed up the lens when I took this 

Even the M25 has a certain grace 

if rather less pictureque 

One of the nicest buildings in Uxbridge
