Oxford & Grand Union Canal Guidebook

The Ninth Edition of the Oxford & Grand Union Canal Companion has been extended to an unprecedented 176 pages. Routes covered include the hugely picturesque and justifiably popular Oxford Canal between Hawkesbury Junction (on the outskirts of Coventry) and the University City of Oxford; the whole of the Grand Union Canal from Birmingham to London (Brentford/Paddington) including its branches to Northampton, Aylesbury, Wendover (under restoration) and Slough; the Regent’s Canal (with large scale mapping to do justice to central London) between Paddington and Limehouse; and the complete Leicester Section of the Grand Union Canal, including the arms to Welford and Market Harborough. Solely the Upper Thames between Lechlade and Oxford has been sacrificed to make space for this increased route coverage, and that will be included in a forthcoming edition of the Kennet & Avon/Thames Canal Companion.
