It's perhaps not the most scenic place you will ever walk but Watford Gap has a certain charm for transport enthusiasts. Here pass the historic Roman Watling Street, the A5, the Birmingham to London railway line, the Grand Union Canal and the M1 motorway. The reason all these major transport arteries pass through here is because Watford Gap is a low-lying region between hills on the limestone escarpment that crosses the heart of England. It's a crucial link between the Midlands and the South East, with many citing it as the dividing line between Northern and Southern England.

Between 1375 and 1611, Ashby Manor House was home to the Catesby family. It was here that Robert Catesby and his fellow rebels, including Guy Fawkes, conspired to blow up the Houses of Parliament in an act of treason that became known as the Gunpowder Plot. Today, the impressive manor is home to beautiful gardens and grounds and is available for private hire.

The Braunston Tunnel is 2,042 yards in length on the Grand Union Canal about 830 yds east of Braunston, Northamptonshire, If you take a small ride up the service road and look out for some nice tech trails back down to the towpath, great fun 👍
