Hadn't really done this walk justice, so decided to re-do it, this time taking in Napton Junction (the point where the Oxford Canal joins the Grand Union Canal).
Not a stunning walk, and not one with much unity of theme, but I enjoyed my couple of hours out in the morning mist. In several places the paths crossed open fields, a nice change from hugging hedgerows. The frosty ground make walking easier than before, crackly and hard rather than squelchy. 5.5 miles.
