In this picture, the post in the middle of the path is an old canon barrel. When I went for walks along this canal as a kid, I can remember running on ahead of my parents a short distance with my brother and sister to the canon barrel to see how much dirt and gravel we could gather up and shove down the end of it before my parents caught up with us. The house in the distance is Fernlea, and the picture is taken from the canal path outside the 'Prince of Wales' public house.
