Rachel - narrowboat on Paddington Arm, Grand Union Canal
Rachel, of Bridgewater Worsley, is moored just before the canal narrows though a stoplock. The building seen along the towpath houses toilets for use of canal boat crews, a pump-out facility, and a water supply. Canal and River Trust offices are just beyond.
Canal boats on the Paddington Arm, Grand Union Canal :: TQ2181

This canal is on a route with no locks from Southall to Paddington. Many canal boats are moored permanently, or move between places where they can moor for a few weeks. Others are touring. Most canal boats here are narrow boats, but there are some wider boats which can access up from the Thames at Brentford.
