  • The Jubilee Greenway. Section 3 of 10
    Transport for London. The Jubilee Greenway. Section 3 of 10. Camden Lock to Victoria Park. Section start: Camden Lock. Nearest stations Camden Town , Camden Road . to start: Section finish: Victoria Park - Canal Gate. Nearest stations Cambridge Heath or Bethnal Green . to finish: Section distance: 4.7 miles (7.6 kilometres). Introduction. Section three is a satisfying stretch along the Regent's Canal, from famous Camden Lock to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. This section highlights the contrasts of a living, growing capital, meandering between old districts and new developments, each with their own unique style and atmosphere. This section of the route takes the walker through Camden Town, Islington, Hackney and Bethnal Green, leading finally to Victoria Park. This provides a fascinating look at how London is changing; passing many new developments and constructions, while savouring the atmosphere of the canal. In some ways the towpath side has changed little, whereas the south side of the canal has developed a great deal. For walkers interested in the history of London's canals you will pass near the London Canal Museum on this section. Look out for the Jubilee Greenway discs in the pavement as you go round. Continues below Directions. To start section three from section two, continue along the towpath past Camden Lock Market. Cyclists have to dismount through the market area here. Coming from Camden Town station, turn left, cross over the road and the bridge to find the towpath on the north side of the canal. Once on the canal towpath, pass rows of Vespa Scooters used as cafe seats and a large bronze lion, as well as many food stalls.

  • At Last a Celebration
    Talk 9: At Last a Celebration Eight months after the money needed for completion of the Regents Canal had been raised all was ready to open the link between Paddington and Limehouse. In May 1820 subscribers were told the Grand Junction had promised to provide 100 locks of water immediately and 800 over the coming months, so the dry, wide and deep trench beyond Camden was ready to be turned into a working canal. The well laid brickwork, the carefully crafted swing bridges, the heavy, newly finished lock gates and the freshly gravelled towpath would have allowed those associated with the whole project, from the ordinary day labourer, who may not have been born when the Grand Junction branch canal was opened, to John Nash, now nearly 70, to share in a sense of achievement. There was little time for sentiment because, after so many years, there was no time to be lost in generating a proper income, but when the day was set for the official opening, few would have grumbled at the cost of organising a proper celebration. Earlier in the year, on the death of his father, the Prince Regent had become king and so, shortly before the great day it was George the Fourth who sent an expression of His Majesties gratification at the completion of the great and useful work which, so he said, promised so much commercial advantage to the metropolis and such facility to the general commerce of the Empire. By nine o’clock, on August 1st, a crowd gathered at Battles Bridge, where the waterborne procession was scheduled to leave from the Maiden Lane basin.
