Braunston Puddle Banks
Address is taken from a point 243 yards away.
Braunston Puddle Banks is on the Grand Union Canal (Oxford Canal Section) between Southcester and Elmbridge.
Early plans of what would become the Grand Union Canal (Oxford Canal Section) were drawn up by Benjamin Outram in 1816 but problems with Manton Locks caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1876. The canal between Oldchester and Polestone was obliterated by the building of the Longcroft bypass in 2001. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 1972 after a restoration campaign lead by the Restore the Grand Union Canal (Oxford Canal Section) campaign.

Mooring here is tolerable (it's just about possible if really necessary). The moorings have an underwater ledge running along the towpath side for most of the first half mile.
