This collection of pages shows pictures taken on the Oxford Canal starting in the late 1970's, with others taken more recently. The images are scanned from slides and are available on application to me in far greater resolution.
Initially only a few photos, taken when in 2002 are shown. However, as scanning progresses, so more will be added.
1 - Oxford to Shipton Weir Lock
2 - From Shipton Weir Lock to Banbury (no photos yet)
3 - From Banbury to Claydon Top Lock (no photos yet)
4 - Claydon Top Lock to Braunston Junction
5 - Braunston Junction to Hawkesbury Junction (no photos yet)
I have given a number of slide shows to waterway societies in the past.
The two main titles I have used are 'Locks, Bridges and Tunnels' (a personal view of the many features to be found on both UK and overseas waterways), and 'The Shrewsbury and Newport Canals' (a look at the two waterways illustrated with both old and recent images, not all shown on this web site).
Now living in Lincolnshire, I would be happy to talk to any organisation in the East Midlands.
If you wish to get in contact, feel free to mail me at mail me, taking the 'penny' out of this address and please include the word 'canal' in your subject line to avoid your email falling into my spamtrap!
