Braunston Marina is steeped in history. It was originally developed at
the turn of the 19th century as the waterways depot at the northern end
of what was then called the Grand Junction Canal where it joined up with
the Oxford Canal. Several original buildings from the Georgian and
early Victorian periods are still in their intended use. The Marina's
entrance is dominated by the very fine Horsley Iron Works cast iron
bridge dating from 1834, erected by Thomas Telford.
Today Braunston Marina is a major centre for leisure craft and narrowboats , with modern mooring facilities for 250 boats. a large, busy brokerage selling all types of new and used steel narrowboats. We have dry and wet docks, craneage pad and a service area capable of most repairs.
