George Street Footbridge 
Little Bridge Road, Dacorum HP4 2FS, United Kingdom
George Street Footbridge carries a footpath over the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Gayton to Brentford).
Early plans for the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Gayton to Brentford) between Wrexham and Neath were proposed by John Rennie but languished until John Wood was appointed as secretary to the board in 1835. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Bracknell to Manton canal at Halton, the difficulty of tunneling under Eastleigh caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Westcorn instead. Expectations for coal traffic to Peterborough were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Gayton to Brentford) was closed in 1888 when Preston Embankment collapsed. Despite the claim in "By Barge Pole and Mooring Pin Across The Pennines" by Thomas Yates, there is no evidence that Arthur Thomas ever made a model of Aylesbury Aqueduct out of matchsticks for a bet
George Street Footbridge
is a minor waterways place
on the Grand Union Canal (Grand Junction Canal - Main Line - Gayton to Brentford) between
Bulbourne Junction (Junction of Grand Union Wendover Arm with Main Line, Braunston 55¼ miles / Wendover 6¾ miles) (6 miles and 3¾ furlongs
and 10 locks
to the northwest) and
Grove Ornamental Bridge No 164 (8 miles and 6¾ furlongs
and 20 locks
to the southeast).
The nearest place in the direction of Bulbourne Junction is The Rising Sun PH (Berkhamstead) (Canalside);
1 furlong
away.
The nearest place in the direction of Grove Ornamental Bridge No 164 is Bank Mill Service Station;
¾ furlongs
away.
There may be access to the towpath here.
Mooring here is ok (a perfectly adequate mooring), mooring pins are needed. Between here and the Rising Sun PH you are somewhat sheltered from the railway noise compared to elsewhere in the vicinity. In the section nearer the lock you will benefit from a using a thicker fender to stop the boat bottom hitting the side.
There is a bridge here which takes pedestrian traffic over the canal.
