No map no plan. With a coffee in one hand, and music blasting through my headphones, I turned at a corner on Haslemere Road and was face to face with Elthorne Park. Not wasting any time, I crossed the road and enter the park, wandering around, trying to get lost (well, it is not big enough to get lost). Eventually, I found a path leading to the Grand Union Canal. This is how the Brentford to Hanwell canal walk came about. You can find the map of the walk at the end of this post.

But in fact, Brentford has a rich history. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Did you know that Brentford is where Caesar crossed the River Thames during his invasion of Britain? Also, did you know that many artefacts dating from the Bronze Age were uncovered in the area? And, did you know that the Brentford Knot pattern comes from an Irion  Age chariot excavated in Brentford?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Brentford is a gold mine for archaeologists. The dredging of the river led to the discovery of many relics which had to be removed as they constituted a hazard for navigation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><em>Fun Fact: Pocahontas lived in Brentford with her husband John Rolfe. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Nowadays, Brentford is the home of many company headquarters, such as GSK and Sky, located on the Great West Road, leading straight to Heathrow airport. But today we are not going on holiday, and instead staying in the locality of Brentford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Boston Manor Park<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor.jpg?resize=1024%2C536&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Boston Manor pound with trees around and building in the background\" class=\"wp-image-6424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor.jpg?resize=1024%2C536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor.jpg?resize=300%2C157&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor.jpg?resize=768%2C402&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Our walk starts at Brentford train station. Walk up Station Road until you reach Great West Road and then turn left. Walk on the pavement until you find a pedestrian crossing a little bit further down. Cross over and continue walking in direction of the canal. After the bridge is the start of the Grand Union Canal Towpath. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Take the towpath and at the first bridge, cross over to enter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hounslow.gov.uk\/BostonManorPark\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Boston Manor Park<\/a>. The park is nowadays on what used to be the magnificent Boston Estate, dating back to 1163. During the sixteenth century, the financier Thomas Gresham owned the estate. Comprised of walks, pounds, gardens and plantations the estate was sold in 1670 to the Clitherow family. In the eighteenth century, they sold part of the estate to allow the construction of the Grand Union Canal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-columns\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor-3.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=500&#038;ssl=1 500w\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Boston Manor view from behind the trees\" data-height=\"800\" data-id=\"6422\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=6422\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor-3.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor-3.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor-4.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=500&#038;ssl=1 500w\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Boston Manor pound with Boston Manor on the left trees around and buildings in the background\" data-height=\"800\" data-id=\"6423\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=6423\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor-4.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Boston-Manor-4.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Due to the increasing maintenance costs, they sold the entire estate to the Brentford Council in 1923.

Then, walk back to the Grand Union Canal Towpath to continue the journey towards Hanwell. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Le canal de la Grande Union<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">For the next 1.4 miles (2.25 km), you are walking on the Grand Union Canal towpath. The <a href=\"https:\/\/canalrivertrust.org.uk\/enjoy-the-waterways\/canal-and-river-network\/grand-union-canal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Canal de la Grande Union<\/a>, formerly called Grand Junction Canal, starts in Brentford and then divides into two branches: one going towards Leicester and one towards Birmingham. The latter is the longest branch of the canal stretching across 137 miles (220 km) with 166 locks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The construction of the Grand Union Canal began in 1793. The section to Berkhamstead was completed in 1798 and the one to Birmingham in 1805. The purpose of the canal was to create a commercial waterway linking London to Birmingham. However, the arrival of the railway impacted the traffic on the canal. Major works of modernisation and reduction of tolls took place to compete with the railroad. Its commercial activity plunged after WWII when coal ceased to be the main source of energy for factories alongside the canal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-columns\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:60.04260%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-3.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=500&#038;ssl=1 500w\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Tree tunnel with ground covered in white petals\" data-height=\"800\" data-id=\"6431\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=6431\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-3.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-3.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Tree tunnel on a first road\" data-height=\"628\" data-id=\"6432\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=6432\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-1024x536.jpg\" data-width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-1024x536.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:39.95740%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Swan.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=500&#038;ssl=1 500w\" alt=\"Swan swimming on the Grand Union Canal\" data-height=\"800\" data-id=\"6429\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=6429\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Swan.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Swan.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-2.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=500&#038;ssl=1 500w\" alt=\"Canal Walk - Tree tunnel with ground covered in white petals\" data-height=\"800\" data-id=\"6430\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=6430\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-2.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Tunnel-2.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Nowadays the Grand Union Canal is a place of leisure for cyclists, runners and walkers who can wander and enjoy nature and wildlife on their way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The branch starting in Brentford follows the River Brent and they form one until you reach the Hanwell Flight of Locks. This is exactly where we are walking today. The towpath takes you through different landscapes, from industrial buildings (yes, sorry it is not all about nature on this walk), to tree tunnels that look stunning in the autumn and winter seasons with the ground covered in leaves, some bushy parts and large open sections with a perfect view on the canal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hanwell Flight of Locks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Continue on the towpath and you arrive at a fork. This is where the River Brent and the Grand Union part ways. You can choose to follow the River Brent to Hanwell or you can make a little detour to see the <a href=\"https:\/\/canalrivertrust.org.uk\/places-to-visit\/hanwell-lock-flight\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hanwell Flight of Locks<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Take the left branch at the junction and you arrive at a series of 6 locks with an additional one after the Three Bridges junction. The locks are handbuilt in Green Oak by skilled carpenters. Their constructions can take months and they last for 25 years. Each lock has a side pound to provide them with sufficient water supply. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:60.13247%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Lock in Hanwell\" data-height=\"628\" data-id=\"6428\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=6428\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-1024x536.jpg\" data-width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-1024x536.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-2-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-2-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-2-1024x536.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Series of locks on the canal\" data-height=\"628\" data-id=\"6426\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=6426\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-2-1024x536.jpg\" data-width=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-2-1024x536.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:39.86753%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-4.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=500&#038;ssl=1 500w\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Lock house by the canal with the facade covered in ivy\" data-height=\"800\" data-id=\"6436\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/?attachment_id=6436\" data-url=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-4.jpg\" data-width=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-4.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">You notice on your right-hand side a long Victorian brick wall. It separates the towpath from the former St Bernards Hospital, now the headquarters of the West London Mental Health NHS Trust. Its construction started in 1829 with the purpose of becoming an asylum for people suffering from mental disorders. As you walk alongside the canal, try to look for a gate in the brick wall: this is where the coal was delivered to the hospital. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-3.jpg?resize=1024%2C536&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Lock in Hanwell with brick wall separating from the St Bernard's Hospital\" class=\"wp-image-6427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-3.jpg?resize=1024%2C536&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-3.jpg?resize=300%2C157&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-3.jpg?resize=768%2C402&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Lock-3.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Continue a little further down and you arrive at the crossing of 2 bridges, one for the road and one for the railway. They both cross over the canal. The junction of the routes at three different levels gives the name <em>Three Bridges<\/em> to this location. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Turn back and retrace your steps. When you arrive at the section where the canal splits, take the other branch and continue your journey alongside the River Brent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">River Brent<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The River Brent is a tributary of the River Thames, starting in Brentford and flowing to Hendon where the <a href=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/fr\/dollis-valley-greenwalk\/\">Dollis Brook<\/a> and Mutton Brook merge. The River Brent is the longest river in London stretching across 17.9 miles (28.8 km) of parks and urbanised areas. It fills the Brent Reservoir, also called <a href=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/fr\/welsh-harp-walk\/\">Welsh Harp<\/a>, passes near the Wembley Stadium and across the Ealing Golf Course and Hanwell Zoo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sir John Betjeman, an English laureate poet, writer and broadcaster wrote: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Gentle Brent, I used to know you<br>Wandering Wembley-wards at will,<br>Now what change your waters show you<br>In the meadowlands you fill!<br>Recollect the elm-trees misty<br>And the footpaths climbing twisty<br>Under cedar-shaded palings,<br>Low laburnum-leaned-on railings<br>Out of Northolt on and upward to the heights of Harrow hill.<\/p>\n<cite>Sir John Betjeman<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Contenu connexe<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/theflamingohiker.com\/fr\/brent-river-park-walk\/\">Brent River Park Walk<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Viaduct<\/h4>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Viaduct.jpg?resize=250%2C400&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Viaduct view from under the arch\" class=\"wp-image-6434\" style=\"width:250px;height:400px\" width=\"250\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Viaduct.jpg?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Viaduct.jpg?resize=188%2C300&amp;ssl=1 188w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">As you continue your walk by the river, you come face to face with the imposing structure of the Wharncliffe Viaduct. The viaduct is 66 feet tall (20 m) and 890 feet long (270 m) and was built around 1836 for the Great Western Main Line linking Hanwell to Southall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">It is composed of eight arches with a span of 70 feet (21 m). The columns supporting the rail tracks are designed in an Egyptian style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">It is the first viaduct construction using hollow piers, which means that the columns have empty cavities inside them. It was not intended for this purpose, but a colony of bats decided the cavities would make a perfect home. The &#8220;<em>bat caves<\/em>&#8221; are legally protected and you can see the bats flying in the area at night time, should you want to stay after sundown. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/theflamingohiker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Brentford-to-Hanwell-Canal-Walk-Viaduct-2.jpg?resize=169%2C224&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Brentford to Hanwell Canal Walk - Signpost of the Capital Ring\" class=\"wp-image-6433\" style=\"width:169px;height:224px\" width=\"169\" height=\"224\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Just after walking under the viaduct, you can choose to continue your walk following the <a href=\"https:\/\/tfl.gov.uk\/modes\/walking\/capital-ring\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Capital Ring Route<\/a> or take the footpath on the right to go home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">If you chose option two.
