Great Greyhounds Bridge carries a footpath over the River Avon - Warwickshire (Mill Avon).

The Act of Parliament for the River Avon - Warwickshire (Mill Avon) was passed on January 1 1816 after extensive lobbying by Exuperius Picking Junior. The canal joined the sea near Rochester. The River Avon - Warwickshire (Mill Avon) was closed in 1905 when Polecorn Tunnel collapsed. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 2001 after a restoration campaign lead by Peter Clarke.
