A canalside scene at Shipton-on-Cherwell in Oxfordshire, England. The Oxford canal here is overlooked by the parish church of Holy Cross. The church and village predate the canal by several centuries - the River Cherwell being the only waterway then! There has been a church here since the C12th but after a number of additions it was demolished in 1831 and the present Gothic Revival one built. The canal arrived in 1788, built to link the Midland canals with the Thames at Oxford and thence to London. Nikon D7100 Nikkor 18-200

London Cityscape

The boathouses on the River Thames belonging to the Oxford colleges as viewed from the Thames Path. They are situated between Folly Bridge in Oxford and Iffley Lock. These buildings replace the barges which were established as clubhouses in the 1800s, the first being built in the 1930s. Many of them have a distinct Art Deco style. The newest, however, was constructed in the late 1980s. Here you can often see the rowing crews in training as they power they way along the river.

The lift bridge (221) at Thrupp on the Oxford Canal just north of Kidlington in Oxfordshire, England. Thrupp is a purely canal village - the road stops here! Aubreys Bridge or, as it is sometimes known, Smithy Bridge takes traffic to a car park and tea rooms. Boats passing through the bridge take a sharp left turn to moor or continue on the way to Banbury. This part of the Oxford Canal opened in 1788 and largely follows the course of the River Cherwell. It winds round hills, so locks are well spaced Nikon D7100 Nikkor 18-200

She began her existence as the Muse of Chorus but most know here as the Muse of Tragedy. Melpomene is seen here atop the Clarendon Building in Oxford, England, one of the statues of the Nine Muses which reside there.

An old Oxford college barge hiding in a backwater of the River Thames between Oxford and Iffley. A number of barges like this were bought by the Oxford colleges' rowing clubs in the mid 1800s as changing rooms and viewing platforms for spectators during races. They have now been sold off and can be occasionally found as floating function rooms etc. Club houses were built to replace them and can be found near Christ Church Meadows in Oxford.

The stone bridge (No. 220) crossing the Oxford Canal at Shipton-on-Cherwell. This is one of the stone 'Brindley' bridges named after James Brindley the original supervising engineer of the canal. In front is a single lock gate. This is a 'stop lock' for isolating part of the canal for mainenance or if there is a danger of flooding. The bridge connects the village of Shipton on the right with farmland on the left as we view it. From here the canal continues through Thrupp to Oxford itself.

The River Thames as it flows between the villages of Streatley in Berkshire, England to the south and Goring in Oxfordshire to the north. This is a break between the North Wessex (Berkshire) Downs and the Chiltern Hills known as the Goring Gap. This is the view looking west from the bridge. Moored on the left is one of the old Oxford College barges - now an events venue for the hotel on the river bank. To the right the Thames rushes over the weir, boats passing through the lock. This is a popular scene with artists. Nikon 7100 Nikkor 18-200

Drawn by hand this map has insane detail of London. All the famous landmarks and the famous river Thames are there.

This weathervane, or weathercock, can be found on what used to be the India Institute in Oxford, England, Though the building now houses the Oxford Martin School vestiges of it's original use when it was completed in 1896 can still be seen.

A spring day on the Charles River

The village of Iffley-on-Thames at Oxford. At this point the river is properly called The Isis and as you walk along the Thames Path from here to Oxford you pass the Oxford University's college boathouses. The village itself is a conservation area, its narrow streets leading down to the river where you cross the weir to reach the lock. In the background, rising above the trees, is the Norman church of St Mary the Virgin, a Grade 1 listed building.

Looking south across the River Thames from the Buckinghamshire bank to the parish church of All Saints at Bisham in Berkshire, England. The church dates from the 12th century, the squat Norman tower being built around 1175. The buildings were extended over the following years, particularly by the Hoby family who lived in nearby Bisham Abbey. Walking along the Thames Path between Marlow and Henley on Thames, the buildings of both the church and abbey can be seen only a short distance from Marlow.
