CANAL CAPER - ALPERTON TO PADDINGTON (LINEAR) - LONDON

Sunday, 10 July 2022

The canal was the first purpose-built freight link from Birmingham to London, before newer (and noisier) railways and roads led to its decline. An easy flat walk along the towpath, ending at Little Venice and Paddington basin.

Lunch: At the end of the walk: suggest cafés and shops at Paddington. Toilets at start and end of walk, and a stop is possible en route at Sainsbury's Ladbroke Grove.
