Tring Cutting Bridge No 134 carries a farm track over the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Gayton to Brentford).
Early plans for the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Gayton to Brentford) between Wrexham and Neath were proposed by John Rennie but languished until John Wood was appointed as secretary to the board in 1835. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Bracknell to Manton canal at Halton, the difficulty of tunneling under Eastleigh caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Westcorn instead. Expectations for coal traffic to Peterborough were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Gayton to Brentford) was closed in 1888 when Preston Embankment collapsed. Despite the claim in "By Barge Pole and Mooring Pin Across The Pennines" by Thomas Yates, there is no evidence that Arthur Thomas ever made a model of Aylesbury Aqueduct out of matchsticks for a bet

Mooring here is impossible (it may be physically impossible, forbidden, or allowed only for specific short-term purposes). Banks colapsed.
There is a bridge here which takes a minor road over the canal.

![Marshcroft Lane Canal Bridge. A closer photo of Marshcroft Lane Canal Bridge, as seen in the distance in [[[1274302]]]. The masonry of this bridge is very deep, the distance from the top of the parapet to the top of the arch being at least as great as the height of the arch itself. This is a view of the bridge from the north taken in Spring - for the same bridge from the south in Winter, see [[[87553]]] by Rob Farrow – 26 April 2009](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/27/43/1274309_77f2feb1_120x120.jpg)

![On Marshcroft Lane Canal Bridge looking North East. This show the road over the Grand Union Canal (Bridge No 134) on Marshcroft Lane, Tring. This is a cross-over bridge where the canal towpath switches banks. It is a complex junction for walkers.To the left a public footpath runs along the north earth tip from the canal towards Folly Railway Bridge.Straight ahead there is a permissive bridleway towards Marshcroft and Park Hill Farms. [[1452813]].To the left a slope leads down to the towpath going east, and immediately of the slope there are steps up to a footpath which runs east along the canal earth tip towards Tring Station. by Chris Reynolds – 31 May 2009](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/45/28/1452836_e0da4095_120x120.jpg)


![Narrowboat approaching Marshcroft Bridge (No 134) on the Grand Union Canal. At this point the Grand Union Canal runs through a deep cutting, and the view is taken from bridge carrying Marshcroft Lane ([[1194692]]) across the canal.

![The earth bank of material excavated from the canal. When the canal cutting was dug at the end of the 18th century the vast quantity of material removed was left as broad banks on either side of the cutting, and for most of the length of the cutting public footpaths now run on top of these banks. The hedgerow is the bridleway to Marshcroft Farm. [[1452813]]. by Chris Reynolds – 21 August 2009](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/45/28/1452855_68a6d977_120x120.jpg)



![Tree arch over footpath. This footpath heading southeastwards off Marshcroft Lane just before the bridge over the Grand Union Canal follows the southwestern bank of that canal. It runs parallel to the towpath on the opposite bank of the canal, which takes over the title of the Grand Union Canal Walk Long Distance Path, which swaps banks of the canal at this point. This path here being simply a footpath.See also [[[3356099]]] and [[[3356104]]] by Rob Farrow – 19 February 2013](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/35/61/3356106_552d379f_120x120.jpg)
