Marsworth Locks Drone Flight

Drone flight over the locks and reservoirs at Marsworth.
Wilstone Reservoir is the largest of the quartet at 119 acres (48 ha). Built in 1802, it is up to 18 feet (5.5 m) deep and has a capacity of 240 million imperial gallons (1.1 Gl). Wilstone reservoir supplies water to the Wendover arm of the Grand Union Canal. Startops End Reservoir, built in 1817, is much smaller at 26 acres (11 ha); Marsworth Reservoir, built in 1806, is 24 acres (9.7 ha); and the smallest, Tringford Reservoir, was built in 1816 = Wikipedia

Simply magnificent ... excellent drone handling, editing and choice of music which really emphasises this impressive work of industrial heritage. Well done chap!

[@GeorgeAndSophie]

Thank you so much for this perfect video of the locks and reservoirs at Marsworth, your choice of music was just perfect. My wife and I took my sons boat though these seven locks yesterday evening and it is incredible to see this beautiful stretch of countryside from the air. As Matt Allen has written below "Simply magnificent ... excellent drone handling, editing and choice of music which really emphasises this impressive work of industrial heritage. Well done chap!"

Hah, I was viewing your excellent video, because I was thinking of taking my kayak up this stretch and then I realised who the filmmaker is. I had my COVID jab at Bucks New Uni, which is at the canal basin in Aylesbury. Hope life is treating you well Mike. Nick G, ex BBC DOM and newly retired after 40 years.

Hi Nick, doing well thanks. If I see anyone in a Kayak up that way, I'll see if it's you! :) Enjoy retirement. It seems a lot of people are doing that all of a sudden. Cheers.

The only feature film based on canal life starring Harry H Corbett featured the top lock and cottage extensively. The Bargee
