Newbury, Berks
(Cat No. 354, Gallery No. 2)

The 280 year old 'Kennet and Avon Canal' is 87 miles long and links the River Kennet in Newbury to the River Avon at Bath.

This section of the canal, just outside of Newbury in Berkshire, is typical of the canal today - teeming with narrowboats, barges and cruisers.  Many of these can be hired from the numerous marinas found along the way.

Today the canal is a heritage tourism destination  and an important area for wildlife conservation with a variety of birds such as herons and kingfishers.stination

Before / After

The original photo was spoiled by the intrusion of a telegraph pole, the long cable that ran from it and a crisp packet floating in the water close to the narrowboat.  They had to be removed .... and what you're left with is a stylish "photo-painting".
