Battlebridge Basin

 
Also known as: London Canal Museum, Horsfall Basin, Maiden Lane Basin, Albert Wharf
Ice Wharf Marina, Regent's Canal towpath, London N1 0XH, United Kingdom
 
Information about the place
Battlebridge Basin is a place on the waterways on the Grand Union Canal (Regent's Canal) between Hertford Union Junction (Junction of Regent's and Hertford Union Canals) (3 miles and 4¾ furlongs and 4 locks to the east) and Cumberland Basin (Junction with Cumberland Market Branch) (1 mile and 5¾ furlongs and 4 locks to the west).
 
 
The nearest place in the direction of Hertford Union Junction is Pembroke Wharf; 1 furlong away.
 
The nearest place in the direction of Cumberland Basin is Kings Place Arts Building (Arts venue and offices of the Guardian newspaper and RailTrack - also Home Mooring of n.b. 'Tarporley'); ¼ furlongs away.

Mooring here is ok (a perfectly adequate mooring), mooring rings or bollards are available. Unless you have permission to use the Marina moorings - or the single Canal Museum mooring as above - forget it. There are limited visitor moorings along the towpath, opposite the basin, with mooring rings. CRT operates a booking system for these moorings, but in practice it is rather chaotic and poorly enforced. There is a £35 booking fee.

Facilities: electric hook up.

You can wind here.

Additional information

The London Canal Museum mooring is primarily for visitors to the museum, who may use it free of charge during a museum visit and for a reasonable time before and after (e.g. for lunch).
The mooring can also be booked for use when the museum is closed, i.e. overnight, at a charge of £8 per boat per night. Narrowboats only, no wide-beamed boats.
Museum hours are 10:00-16:30 Tuesdays to Sundays, so it is only on Sunday and Monday nights that a boat can stay two nights.
Electricity and water are available and there is space for two narrowboats, breasted up.
To pre-book a mooring overnight call 020 7713 0836.
