Abstract
Following the original boom of Britain's network of navigable rivers and canals during the Industrial Revolution, the waterways fell into decline following the Second World War. Now this trend has been reversed, under the care and management of British Waterways. This paper outlines the restoration work undertaken, and the economic benefits are illustrated by means of a recent case study on the Kennet and Avon Canal.
