🚢 Grosvenor Canal

Grosvenor Canal was a canal in the Pimlico area of Westminster, opened in 1824. It was progressively shortened, as first the railways to Victoria Station and then the Ebury Bridge housing estate were built over it. It remained in use until 1995, enabling barges to be loaded with refuse for removal from the city, making it the last canal in Greater London to operate commercially. A small part of it remains within the Grosvenor Waterside development.
