Wikipedia has a page about The Narrows
The Narrows is the tidal strait separating the boroughs of Staten Island and Brooklyn in New York City, United States. It connects the Upper New York Bay and Lower New York Bay and forms the principal channel by which the Hudson River empties into the Atlantic Ocean. It has long been considered to be the maritime "gateway" to New York City and historically has been one of the most important entrances into the harbors of the Port of New York and New Jersey.

![Wendover Arm; Cycling along the Canal Towpath. While no longer used as a towpath the old route along the side of the disused canal is now a well maintained footpath much used by cyclists as well as walkers.See [[1235539]] by Chris Reynolds – 19 April 2009](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/03/1310367_aa7afd2d_120x120.jpg)
![Wendover Arm: halfway between Hare Lane Bridge (No 8) and Wellonhead Bridge (No 7). The hedge on the Green Park of the disused canal overhangs the water while there is a large field behind the hedge on the towpath side.See [[1235539]] by Chris Reynolds – 19 April 2009](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/03/1310370_20f2d4f6_120x120.jpg)
![Wendover Arm: A natural arch over the Canal Towpath. Many of the trees in the hedge are overgrown with ivy – and this one has toppled over to form an arch. Because the former towpath is now a recognised public right of way I assume the maintenance is the responsibility of the County Council.See [[1235539]] by Chris Reynolds – 19 April 2009](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/03/1310371_4c2e25cc_120x120.jpg)


![Wendover Arm: The trees return. The canal in this square show an interesting feature and are worth comparing. Where the trees totally overhang the canal there are no reeds. Where the hedges on either are low or absent the reeds grow in profusion.This is taken from the same spot as the previous picture but looking east rather than west. The large horse chestnut tree overshadows the canal and the high wooded edges into the distance mean that the reeds vanish.See [[1235539]] by Chris Reynolds – 19 April 2009](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/18/1311804_9e344c43_120x120.jpg)
![Wendover Arm: “The Narrows” on this branch of the Grand Union Canal. From the Information Board“Across the water is the brick wharf [[1310382]] used by boats delivering goods to Sir Anthony De Rothschild's now demolished house in Green Park. This stretch of canal is referred to as 'the narrows' the result of being lined with concrete to prevent the persistent leakage invading the Rothschild dining room!†While there may well have been a wharf at this point when the house was being renovated in the mid 19th century, there is no nearby winding hole and it may never have been a commercial wharf. Once “The Narrows†had been constructed a narrowboat unloading at this point would have blocked access to the Wendover Arm of the canal.See [[1235539]] by Chris Reynolds – 19 April 2009](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/03/1310379_8f4e6364_120x120.jpg)

When you enter Cobblers Pits from the canal entrance you immediately find yourself in a yew grove, some with gnarled trunks such as this one.

Guarded by an ageing hedge weighed heavy with old man's beard, and shrouded by a dark evergreen canopy of red-barked pillars of yew, lies a series of long abandoned pits. This old sunken lane is now cut off by the Wendover Arm, but cut off from where? One suggestion is that the lane was part of a trade route linking the Upper and Lower Icknield Ways, but perhaps it was merely a local track to carry marl from the pits down to the canal.â€The above explanation from the information board fails to mention two rather obvious facts.The first is that when the local parishes were laid out perhaps a thousand years or more ago, each was a long narrow strip with the village on the fertile soil in the Vale of Aylesbury and common land on the less fertile hills of the Chilterns. In each case there would have been a track between the village and the common lane. For instance there is “The Holloway†leading south from Drayton Beauchamp [[SP9012]] towards Drayton Manor [[SP9010]] while Buckland Common [[SP9206]] is a long way from Buckland [[SP8912]]. The track through Cobblers Pits would almost certainly have been the track between Aston Clinton and Aston Hill Farm [[SP8910]], which still continues as a modern road south of the Upper Icknield Way.The second is that if the track was later used to transport material from the quarries at Cobblers Pits it could also have been used to carry the stone from the near Aston Clinton Rag Pits [[SP8810]] which lie alongside the line of the old track. However there is no built up edge to the south bank of the canal to suggest that there was ever a wharf accessed from the south, which suggests to me that the quarries are older than the canal. by Chris Reynolds – 19 April 2009](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/03/1310396_8c3adfdc_120x120.jpg)

![Cobblers Pits – A Yew Woodland in Disused Quarries. From the Information Board“Pure stands of yew are unusual but serve well as a screen for a redundant quarry. Commonly planted around country houses in the 18th and 19th centuries, are they the work of Lord Lake, owner of the pre-Rothschild Aston Clinton Manor. Whatever their origin, the tree are now being managed by Buckinghamshire County Council to replace the recent storm damage [probably referring to 1987] and ensure their long-term well being.â€â€œLight and Dark .... Walking along the sunken lane the gloom of the closed canopy, familiar to travellers of old, is suddenly broken by a flood of light where the ageing trees on the pits' thin soils have been torn down by recent storms. The light brings with it opportunity and abundance as the sparse undergrowth of shade tolerant ivy under the yews is swamped by a multitude of light loving grasses, herbs and shrubs, taking advantage of the newly created open space. As the current tree planting grows up, and shade returns, the ivy will re-establish itself whilst the invaders await the next storm.â€This view shows the stand of yews at the north end of a long narrow strip of woodland, with evidence of quarrying. There is another significant stand at the south end and an area with young yew trees whose size fits in with replanting after 1987. However my first impression is that there were parts of the wood which were never mainly yew. by Chris Reynolds – 19 April 2009](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/03/1310392_640ae080_120x120.jpg)
![A stand of young ash trees in Cobblers Pits, Aston Clinton. While there is a good stands of yew at the bottom (north end) and another at the top (south end) the middle of the reserve is mainly mixed woodland with the occasional yew tree. What the distribution of tree species were before the storm damage is not obvious.See [[1310392]] by Chris Reynolds – 17 May 2009](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/16/1311622_42dfbb54_120x120.jpg)
![Wendover Arm: The reeds continue. The canal in this square show an interesting feature and are worth comparing. Where the trees totally overhang the canal there are no reeds. Where the hedges on either are low or absent the reeds grow in profusion.While there are hedges on both sides of the canal at this point they do not overshadow it – so there is still plenty of reed.See [[1235539]] by Chris Reynolds – 19 April 2009](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/18/1311800_5df2fe7a_120x120.jpg)

![The old track becomes a holloway. As the track proceeds up the hill it becomes more deeply incised to the point where it can clearly be described as a holloway, although it is far less deep than many that lie on the steeper parts of the Chiltern escarpment.

![The quarry in Cobblers Pits. To the east of the track, about half way up the hill, there is a comparatively large quarry. As the picture shows, the vegetation is so thick that it is very hard to see – and is best left as an undisturbed nature reserve.See [[1310396]] by Chris Reynolds – 17 May 2009](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/16/1311666_c8a884a5_120x120.jpg)

![Wendover Arm: Making Friends on the Towpath. Because the old towpath is part of long distance walks – both the Aylesbury Ring and the Grand Union Canal Walk and with many side access points – this is one of the busiest rural walks I have so far investigated.See [[1235539]] by Chris Reynolds – 19 April 2009](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/31/04/1310469_3aee71dc_120x120.jpg)
