Camden Canal Clearance
London’s Regents Canal is an iconic piece of the capital’s history, a small part of which we helped to preserve in the winter of 2018. It fuelled Britain’s Industrial Revolution as goods from around the country made their way to London’s docks, whilst the raw materials which made such a revolution possible arrived from around the world, and travelled in the opposite direction.
These days, the canal serves a different purpose; as a home to London’s boater community, a pleasant route to work for commuters, and a great recreational resource for tourists and locals alike.
And in January, Urban Growth have been doing their bit to improve the experience for everyone.
