John blazes a trail.

A tree makes a curved arch over the canal towpath at Pontnewydd, close to the park.

Broad Oak bridge just east of Odiham on the Basingstoke canal. The canal at this point is lined by wonderful Ash and Oak trees. There is wild land for the most part along the banks.

Time slows down on the towpath, where historic stone walls meet the gentle ripple of the canal.A peaceful summer afternoon along a the Rochdale canal towpath, featuring traditional stone cottages and a classic arched bridge.

(273/365) iPhone5 image taken as I was walking up Blennerville sea canal towards Tralee which is the capital of County Kerry. In 1828 funding was sought for a canal to link the town to the sea at Blennerville. The canal, only about 2 km long, opened in 1846 & ships up to 300 tonnes used to navigate the canal until it silted up & was closed in the 1930s when a deep-water quay was built up the coast at Fenit.

Today the towpath is popular with walkers & bird watchers. You can read about the history of the canal here www.focuskerry.com/james/canal.html Happy Telegraph Tuesday!

Taken from a bridge over the canal at Littleborough. A nice February day for a walk & some photography!

Not sure whether this is fly-tipping or work as usual.

Thanks to Skeletalmess for the textures.

Sometimes, canal towpaths travel through less leafy and attractive stretches. They do however hold the ghosts of former industry that grew up around the canals of the UK. I like these sometimes unloved places as they have an integrity about them.
