EDITORS COMMENTS
Bask in the serene beauty of Foxton Locks, a stunning staircase flight of ten locks on the Grand Union Canal in the picturesque village of Foxton, Leicestershire. Captured in this exquisite photograph by Anne French for Historic England, the scene showcases the wooded countryside and the tranquil waterway that winds through the heart of rural England. The Grand Union Canal, a masterpiece of engineering and transportation history, is adorned with these intricately designed lock gates, each one a testament to the ingenuity of the past. The locks allow boats to navigate the elevation change between the upper and lower sections of the canal, connecting the River Thames to the Midlands and the North of England. Listed by Historic England, this site holds significant historical value and is a popular destination for visitors seeking a glimpse into the rich heritage of the waterway system. The peaceful setting, with its lush greenery and the gentle flow of the water, invites one to unwind and appreciate the simple pleasures of nature. As you take in the breathtaking view, imagine the stories of the past that have unfolded along these tranquil waters. From the horse-drawn barges that once transported goods to the bustling markets of the North, to the families and holidaymakers who now enjoy the serenity of the canal, Foxton Locks remain a cherished part of England's history and a testament to the enduring allure of the countryside.
