SD6225 : Canal Marina
near to Hoghton, Lancashire, Great Britain
Canal Marina
This appears to be a former "winding hole" which has been converted into a Marina.
A winding hole was somewhere that boatmen could turn their 70' boats, required because the canals were generally not wide enough to turn them elsewhere.
