Bridge No 15 on the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal. The bridges were built c1800 in anticipation of wide boats, but cost resulted in the standard narrow locks being constructed; plans for a wide canal were abandoned.

Dist:0.6km<br/>Approaching some very "ambitious" apartment developments by the canal. I wonder how the 2008 "credit crunch" is going to affect buyers and developers of this kind of project.

Dist:0.6km<br/>Here the canal approaches a very "ambitious" apartment development, "Water's Edge". I wonder how the 2008 "credit crunch" and its aftermath has affected buyers and developers of this kind of project.

Dist:0.6km<br/>Part of the extremely ambitious Waterside "Village Centre" development, started c2006(?). I wonder how the "credit crunch" of 2008-2010 is affecting the developers and purchasers at these grandiose structures. See the hype for yourself here http://www.dickensheathvillage.com/index.html and here http://www.dickensheathvillage.com/waterside.html . They don't use the common people's word for the canal. "We have a penthouse overlooking the Stratford-upon-Avon Waterway, OK, ya?" Well who wants to live down by the cut? Not me, Tarquin!
