Odiham, Canal Wharf 1906

More about this scene
This canal was constructed in 1796; it runs for nearly forty miles through northern Hampshire. It was never a financial success because of its rural course, and the success of the Kennet & Avon Canal put paid to the owners' hopes. Here we see the upper reaches, and the surface weed indicates a lack of commercial use. Note the telegraph poles on the left, once a regular sight alongside canals. Today they have gone; beneath the towpath, fibre optic cables are now buried – today's version of another kind of communication.
