Description
The Basingstoke Canal is criss crossed be lots of Railway lines. In fact the railways were part of the demise and revival of the canal.
By 1834, only 40 years after opening, the canal was already in a derelict state through lack of use, but it was revitalised more than once to serve local developments. It was used to carry materials for the construction of the London to Southampton Railway which was completed to Basingstoke in 1839.

Nice tone mapping job here David, I love the zoom on this one revealing all the nosses on the railway bridge, very nice work.
I used to live at Basingstoke for 6 years. Nice place. Worked for Snamprogetti towards the big AA building tower. More into disused railways than disused canals. Basingstoke still has very good rail and road connections.
nice textures you've brought out.. particularly like the light shining off the underside of the bridge.. good compo/angle too
nice picture.
Love the lighting and pov on this one!
Great engineering feats and I am glad it has been revitilised. I like your lighting in this capture.
Fabulous feel to this spot. So 'lone and quiet...
The entire system is an engineering marvel...particularly for the period. Fine photo.
