| The Oxford canal was built during the XIXth century to bring vegetables and coal from the midlands to Oxford. It is now used mainly for leisure.
We biked along it from Oxford to Banbury (approximately 30 miles). Pictures taken between Oxford and Banbury, Oxfordshire (and Northamptonshire) on 1st May 2005. |
