Way back in 2021 and 2022 as the restrictions on travel were easing we embarked on a journey to walk the entirety of the London Canal Loop consisting of the Regent’s Canal, Grand Union Canal (Paddington Arm and regular), and the River Thames.

We’re back in London for another dose of Canal Loops, this time taking the ‘short’ loop from Limehouse, up the Limehouse Cut, onto the River Lea/Lee Navigations and then back along the Hertford Union Canal to the Regent’s Canal.

Join us as we walk from the Tate Modern along the Thames back to Limehouse where we started our journey oh so many months ago.

This week we’re continuing our walk from Wandsworth Bridge along the River Thames through Central London past numerous well known London landmarks such as Battersea Power Station, MI6, the Houses of Parliament, the London Eye, the Tate Modern and the Millennium Bridge.

As the Grand Union Canal joins the River Brent it gets more and more industrial, passing by weirs, roads, railways, offices and warehouses until we finally reach the Thames at Brent Creek.

In this episode we start our return journey, turning South and heading down the Grand Union canal back toward the thames.

In late November we braved the bleak and windy weather to continue this walk along the London Canals.
