| Fully revised and updated, this guide will appeal to canal enthusiasts and boating holiday-makers alike. In fact, it is the ideal companion for anyone with a leisure interest in the 2000 miles of waterways which flow through some of Britain's most beautiful and unspoilt countryside. Each stretch of waterway is fully illustrated with up-to-date colour Ordnance Survey® mapping with navigational symbols and towpaths clearly marked. Essential notes cover planning a cruise, safety on the water, using locks, bridges and winding holes, and the location of boatyards and moorings. Information on the history of each canal, places of interest along the way, towns and villages nearby, and waterside pubs and restaurants make this the indispensable guide for all users of the waterways.
