The Hanwell Flight
Looking 'downhill' from Lock 95, towards the two bottom-most locks of the flight, 96 and 97. In its day the flight (of six locks) must have been what we would now call a 'major infrastructure project'. It remains pretty impressive, to this day.

Shot taken on what was a very warm day in London - a peak of 30C was recorded in the late afternoon, and the temperature was still 27C at the time of this shot, at about 19.35.
