The local waterways have been known for many years as the Old Union Canals, they run from West Bridge, Leicester in the north,to Norton Junction, near Daventry, in the south. The Local Canal Society "Old Union Canals Society" exists to promote the waterway, and helped in the restoration of the Welford arm. They are now working as part of the Foxton Locks Partnership.
