The Basingstoke Canal is a British canal, completed in 1794, built to connect Basingstoke with the River Thames at Weybridge via the Wey Navigation.
From Basingstoke, the canal passes through or near Greywell, North Warnborough, Odiham, Dogmersfield, Fleet, Farnborough Airfield, Aldershot, Mytchett, Brookwood, Knaphill and Woking. Its eastern end is at Byfleet, where it connects to the Wey Navigation. This, in turn, leads to the River Thames at Weybridge. Its intended purpose was to allow boats to travel from the docks in East London to Basingstoke.
It was never a commercial success and, from 1950, lack of maintenance allowed the canal to become increasingly derelict. After many years of neglect, restoration commenced in 1977 and on 10 May 1991 the canal was reopened as a fully navigable waterway from the River Wey to almost as far as the Greywell Tunnel. However its usage is currently still limited by low water supply and conservation issues.

![Bridges over the Wey Navigation. On the right is the junction with the Basingstoke Canal; see [[[3498694]]]. On the left, a sign directs towpath users on the options. To follow the Basingstoke Canal, they must use the footbridge in the background, crossing the Wey Navigation just a few metres north of the railway line. by Derek Harper – 10 May 2013](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/49/87/3498722_4232a72e_120x120.jpg)





![Bridges over the Wey Navigation. Four bridges of very different nature cross the canal within not much more than100 metres here, either side of the junction with the Basingstoke Canal (left). This is taken from the footbridge in front of the railway bridge shown in [[3498722]], and shows the cable bridge seen in [[585654]] and the M25 bridge. by Derek Harper – 10 May 2013](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/51/43/3514316_ddd664bc_120x120.jpg)

It seems that the next graffiti tagger is always hellbent on painting over the previous one's efforts. by Nigel Cox – 20 May 2008](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/photos/82/18/821848_9e36cb8d_120x120.jpg)
