Frimley To Oldbury Pt2

from the Travelodge in Northampton return to the Northampton arm of the Grand Union Canal and join the Grand Union going north.

Continue to Braunston( there is a tunnel just before Braunston which means you have to leave the canal...I nearly got lost here because the link back is not sign posted..Check on Google maps to familiarize yourself with its patht) and take the Oxford Canal, west. Follow to Napton Juction and take the Grand Union, north to Kingswood(tunnel at Shrewley). Join The Stratford Upon Avon canal going north to its juction with the Worcester and Birmingham Canal ( there is also a tunnel just before this junction that means you have to leave the canal..again the link back is not sign posted so check on google maps.), continue Noth to Gas St Basin. Join the Birmingham Canal Navigations going north west to the Birmingham Canal (old main line)..take this to its road juction with Churchbridge.
