When the canal was built 200 years ago the Aylesbury Arm had not been built and the towpath was on the west side of the canal for many miles. When the Aylesbury Arm was constructed the west towpath turned down the Aylesbury Arm and a new towpath was constructed on the east between Bridges No 131 and 132.
