Find below at least one photo of every canal bridge and lock on the Grand Union Canal as it travels between Ivinghoe and Kings Langley (i.e. Ivinghoe Lock no32 through to Home Park Canal Lock 70/Canal Bridge no.159).
Marsworth Lock Flight. The area around Marsworth Locks is very popular with visitors - there are many walks both short and longer affairs which you can do around the area including a wander out into the Buckinghamshire countryside along part of the Aylebsury Canal Arm which leaves the Grand Union near to Bridge 131 or perhaps a nice walk along part of the really beautiful Wendover Arm which leaves the main canal via a really nice bridge at Bulbourne Junction.
There are also several large reservoirs in the immediate area including Marsworth Reservoir which nestles right up to the parking area at Marsworth - very popular with fishermen but also children love the place because of the huge amount of wildlife - including always hungry ducks and swans - which are always around. Just by Bridge 131 there are also two really nice public houses and there is also a cafe just inside the British Waterways car park.
