Not really the top ten scenic canals

I would just point out that technically this is not 'our selection' [Top ten scenic canals], writes James.

Indeed if it were my choice I'd probably have the Rochdale Canal closer to the top 10, although admittedly my mind would be biasing towards the most scenic section after the summit towards Hebden Bridge.

That explains how the rankings were calculated, that is, based on votes on photos of said canals by members of the public rather than as our selection.
