Site of Bridge No 67
Address is taken from a point 250 yards away.
Site of Bridge No 67 carries a footpath over the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Gayton to Brentford) near to Thanet.
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

This is the site of a bridge, the canal may be narrow as a consequence.

![Grand Union Canal: Abandoned lock site. This is the site of one of the four locks that enabled boats to get down from Wolverton to cross the River Great Ouse on the level before climbing up the valley on the other side through another five locks to reach Cosgrove. The reach of the canal was completed in 1800 by the then Grand Junction Canal Company but abandoned in 1811 once the valley was successfully spanned by [[4210396]]. The brickwork and gates are evidently not the originals. The site has a certain air of neglect and it is only when one looks at satellite imagery that it becomes evident that both the right side lock gates are set at more or less 45 degrees to the lock. by Nigel Cox – 06 September 2014](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/04/22/86/4228653_d9b19a1d_120x120.jpg)
