Basingstoke Canal: Junction with River Wey Looking eastwards, the sign boards at the junction can just be discerned.
Woodham Lock No 3, Basingstoke Canal Once one is above the rotting houseboats, walking along the canal becomes a pleasurable experience.
River Wey Navigation near West Hall This section of the navigation has a more river-like quality, with open fields to the west.

Where to stay in West Byfleet

Byfleet Manor House. The current house was built in 1886 but a manor has been on the site since the 13th century. Once a residence of Queen Anne of Denmark, wife of James I, and a favourite haunt of the poet Geoffrey Chaucer, Byfleet Manor is now a private residence often used for location filming. It featured in ITV's Downtown Abbey as the home of Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham, played by Dame Maggie Smith. In February 2013 the Surrey Advertiser reported how a telecoms engineer had lifted the floorboards and come across a previously undocumented seven-foot square hidden room beneath him. It had no doors and a bricked up window. The room's purpose remains unknown.

My third time staying here… love the hotel. Now they state snacks free….The refrigerator had one candy bar and a cracker type snack . I had to tell them to replace the water, which they did… but for the cost of the room, they were cheap.
