St John's Wood - Paddington Basin
Regent's Canal, London. Wed 17 Jul 2019
I joined the Regents Canal at the Park Road bridge
The Undergroud from Baker St and the railway lines from Marylebone
Station go over the canal here
Thomas Lord's second cricket ground was here in 1811, but had to move
when the canal was built through its outfield two years later
The bridge carries the canal side path to the south side of the canal.
The path along the north bank has been closed for some years
The Lisson Grove Estate
The north bank of the canal has moorings and the site behind them
is the St John's Wood National Grid station
The Canal House is in a bridge over a canal, and was built around 1902 for
the manager who controlled the coal barges,
going in and out of the power station (now the National Grid St John's Wood
Substation. Its entrance at 120 Lisson Grove
is on the upper floor. It has an extension on the left side hidden by the
trees.
Oops! That's my finger over the lens... The canal path was moved to
here around ten years ago
The Lisson Grove Centre of Westminster Adult Education service
Boats wait to go through the 249 metres long Maida Hill Tunnel. They
have to wait until there are no boats
coming in the opposite direction
The tunnel emerges under a restuarant
