Progress to the south was by a separate undertaking, the Grand Union Canal Company (GUCCo), which opened its waterway from Foxton to Norton junction in 1814. This was a narrow waterway I suppose to tie in with main line from London to Birmingham.

Sorry but the fact of the matter is that the Watford end of the Leicester
summit was never widened, therefore making it, rightly or wrongly, the
preserve of the narrowboat.
Not at all
When Foxton is rebuilt there will be no reason why a wide beam couldn't come
from the north wind above Watford and return.
The only reason that Watford is as is, is because they ran out of cash!
