In 1812, the Regent's Canal Company was formed to cut a new canal from the Grand Junction Canal's Paddington to Limehoise, where a dock was planned at the junction with the Thames. The architect John Nash played a part in its construction, using his idea of 'barges moving through an urban landscape'.

Completed in 1820, it was built too close to the start of the railway age to be financially successful and at one stage the Regent's only narrowly escaped being turned into a railway. But the canal went on to become a vital part in southern England's transport system.

On Sunday 21st December I will lead a walk picking up the Hertford Union Canal at Hackney Wick and joining the Regents Canal shortly after so we can walk almost, but not quite the entire route of the Regents  Canal of around about 9 and a half miles. The route is mostly tow path, which can be busy with runners, walkers and cyclist although there is a section where we come off the tow path at Angel.

Meet 10 am at Hackney Wick and finish at Paddington. Plenty of drop outs along the way. A lunch stop will be made, not sure where or when, but there will be time to eat to. Bring a packed lunch if you prefer.

Hope to see some of you there.
Georgina

I'll be leading a 7-mile walk from Hammersmith to Richmond along the Thames towpath. It is a flat walk and the paths get muddy so sturdy walking shoes are recommended. We'll be walking along the Southbank to Richmond as the towpath from Kew to Richmond has been reopened. Pub lunch at The Ship in Mortlake where I have booked a table.
