The top ten scenic canals
NEW RESEARCH by Roam and Roost has revealed its selection of the UK’s most scenic canals.
These are spread from the Highlands of Scotland to the south of England, Janet Friend reports.
To us it seems very strange, with none of those exceptionally scenic canals over the Pennines not even getting a mention and the Llangollen next to the last!, Yet the Staffs & Worcs in second place! The picture was taken whilst climbing the Peninnes on the Huddersfield Narrow, which is through real secnery.
Here is the list, that perhaps needs a rather large pinch of salt!
Top ten
1. Caledonian Canal
2. Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal
3. Lancaster Canal
4. Crinan Canal
5. Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal
6. Caldon Canal
7. Coventry Canal
8. Montgomery Canal
9. Llangollen Canal
10. Kennet & Avon Canal.
