Perfect for narrow boat owners and fans of canal boats. Also makes a cool narrowboat gift at Christmas and birthdays.

An impressionist view of canal boats moored on the Kennet and Avon Canal just upstream from Newbury in West Berkshire. Next to one of these - a teepee (or tipi). This image was captured on a February walk along the towpath on a (rare) fine day. The Kennet and Avon makes its way from here through Newbury and on through Berkshire to Reading where it meets the Thames. The canal was constructed between 1794 and 1810 to link the Kennet and Avon rivers providing smooth transport between Bristol and London. Nikon D7100 Nikkor 18-200

A scene on the Oxford Canal captured from the bridge at Shipton-on-Cherwell in Oxfordshire, England. The canal here is very near Oxford and its junction with the River Thames. The bridge spans the waterway and leads to Shipton village and the canalside church of Holy Cross. The canal was the brainchild of the engineer James Brindley who died before the start of construction. It was designed to link Coventry and its coalfields with Oxford, the Thames and London, transporting coal and other goods from the Midlands. Nikon D7100 Nikkor 18-200

A scene on the Oxford Canal at Shipton-on-Cherwell, Oxfordshire, England. Narrow boats, many of them lived in are moored by the towpath as the canal winds its way to Oxford. The canal was the brainchild of the engineer James Brindley who died before the start of construction. It was designed to link Coventry and its coalfields with Oxford, the Thames and London, transporting coal and other goods from the Midlands. It largely follows the contours of the countryside reducing the need for flights of locks. Nikon D7100 Nikkor 18-200

A digital art image of the canal basin at Brecon in Powys, South Wales. Here the Monmouth and Brecon Canal reaches its northernmost limit after winding through the Brecon Beacons. The canal was constructed to link Brecon with the docks at Newport, the narrow boats carrying coal, iron and limestone. A system of tramways linked the canal to the mines and quarries. It is currently navigable between Brecon and Pontymoile, with plans in place to extend this to Newport.

A selection of canal boats moored for the winter just above the lock at Aldermaston on the Kennet and Avon. This image was captured on a fine afternoon in early February just before the sun went down. The Kennet and Avon Canal, 87 miles long, was constructed between 1794 and 1810 to link the Kennet and Avon rivers and thus provide a smooth transport link between Bristol and London via Reading and the Thames. It fell into disuse due to the switch to rail transport and the rise of the Great Western Railway which runs alongside the canal here. It was, however, completely restored from the mid-1900s and the full length fully reopened in 1990. Nikon D7100 Nikkor 18-200

A scene on the Basingstoke canal at Odiham in Hampshire with boats for hire. This canal was opened in 1794 and was constructed to link Basingstoke with the River Thames at Weybridge (Surrey) by way of the Wey Navigation. Its purpose was mainly to transport agicultural goods as far as London. However, it was never commercially successful, ceased carrying goods in 1910 and became increasingly derelict. Restoration began in 1977 and it was reopened as far as the Greywell tunnel in 1991.

Bridge 166 crossing the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal as it leaves the basin in Brecon, South Wales. Dating from the early 1800s the canal was constructed to transport coal and iron to Newport.
