Bridge 34 to bridge 35, Grand Union Canal (6)

West of bridge 34, the Grand Union Canal closely follows the River Leam. This view shows the river which is running immediately north of the canal at this point: the canal is cut into the hillside above the river just out of shot.

When the Leam swings north, the canal continues west past the embankment of the dismantled railway from Leamington to Rugby. The canal then crosses open farmland before passing under bridge 35 and entering the eastern suburbs of Leamington.

The stretch of Grand Union Canal between bridges 34 and 35 is pleasant and wooded with Offchurch Bury Park to the north and the village of Radford Semele behind a low hill to the south.
