Not sure who artist is. Would need to work out rough date.

At the very least we can include it in an 'External Media' box, but could do with more detail first.

Should also try to work out which lock it is. The cottage on the right is a big clue, and the footbridge: the view looks "west" (towards Basingstoke), so it is in a section where the towpath is on the "north" side of the canal. (The "scare quotes" are because it runs north-south in places!) -- EdJogg (talk) 07:51, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
