The main feature pages consist of the following canals in the London area:
Bow Back Rivers: The Bow Back Rivers have been the forgotten waterways of East London. They are destined to become the focus of the 2012 Olympics
Croydon Canal: The Croydon was London's shortest-lived waterway, closing completely by 1837. Today there are hardly any traces of this erstwhile waterway, but this guide will take you along the old canal route
City (Isle of Dogs) Canal The Isle of Dogs Canal, originally known as the rather confusingly named City Canal, was sited on the Isle of Dogs, in the area now known as Canary Wharf stands
Cumberland Arm: A former branch off the Regents Canal that headed south from Camden to the Euston area. It was closed after WW2
Grand Surrey: The canal with big ambitions. Portsmouth was the ultimative objective. It reached Camberwell before its aspirations fizzled out. It was a mildly successful operation which ultimately ended in 1970
Grosvenor Canal: The Grosvenor linked Victoria to the Thames, and doubled as a water reservoir. Just a short stump remains as a water feature
Hertford Union: This link between the Regents Canal and the Lee Navigation runs alongside Victoria Park for most of its length, its three locks forming one of the most attractive flights in the London region
Lee Navigation: The canal that thinks it is a river. The Lee is a waterway whose original route to Hertford up the River Lea has been lost in the mists of time
Limehouse Cut: The first canal to be built in London. A short cut between the Lee Navigation and the Pool of London
Regents Canal: The Regents Canal is used by thousands every year between Little Venice and Camden Town. The reminder of it to Limehouse is just as interesting even if its not so popular
Romford Canal: The penultimate canal to be built in the London area. But it was never finished
Stort Navigation: The most attractive waterway in the London region. The Stort leads through Hertfordshire and Essex countryside to Bishops Stortford
The other feature pages consist of canal related stuff:
Archive Pictures: A look at some of the pictures taken around the London Waterways during the 1980's
Around Little Venice: The definitive guide to the famous part of London where three waterways meet
Bridges & Aqueducts: Canal bridges and aqueducts of interest in the London area
Locks: Locks of interest on both canal and river in the London area
London's Canal Tunnels: There are three canal tunnels in London. Two are without a doubt the country's busiest, linking up the attractive tourist spots of Little Venice and Regents Park
Freight Operations: Freight operations on London's canals have seen a surge in recent years. This feature covers freight and other workings
New River: Is it a canal? A river? An aqueduct? Its the New River - a water supply channel whose characteristics are very much like those of a canal
Paddington Basin: Paddington was the original terminus of the London network in the 1800's. Its now the centre of an ongoing development
Ruislip Canal Feeder: The longest feeder ever built by the GJCCo. A seven mile route that traversed the coutryside between Ruislip and Hayes
Wildlife: Birds galore, you saw it here first!
