Apsley Marina

 
Marina Spice Lounge, Grand Union Canal, Corner Hall HP3 9WQ, United Kingdom
 

Apsley Marina is on the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Gayton to Brentford) just past the junction with The Daventry Canal.

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

There is a BWML boater-operated pumpout (BW key needed to operate) in the basin, which uses 30 unit BWML pumpout cards. The 25 unit C&RT cards can not be used here! Note 08/07/21 met a boat today that was denied use of the facilities here as they were not Marina customers. Pump was available from boater just above lock 65.
