Two narrow boats on the Kennet and Avon Canal moored just downstream from Woolhampton in West Berkshire. The image was captured in early March on a bright and calm late winter afternoon. 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. It fell into disuse due to the Great Western Railway but was completely restored and reopened in 1990.
