Cowley North (Towpath) L1

The Canal & River Trust offers both off-side and towpath side moorings at Cowley, which are located towards the southern end of the Grand Union Canal in west London.

The area is popular with boaters given its proximity to the Colne Valley Regional Park conservation area, as well as its excellent road, rail and waterway links into London and connections via Brentford with the River Thames.

13 towpath moorings are offered above Cowley Lock to the north of the site and on the opposite bank there are 28 linear moorings on the off-side. To the south of the road bridge below Cowley Lock, there are a further 18 berths which are also against the off-side bank.

Uxbridge town centre is located one and a half miles away and provides good shopping, lesiure attractions and other local amenities.

This is a leisure site and is determined by us to be a mooring site for the storage of boats between leisure use, customers may well spend weekends on this site, and occasionally longer periods, but it is not sold as, or intended to be suitable for long term residential use. This site does not have local authority planning consent for residential use, neither does it have the level of facilities and service expected of such a mooring. As such the offer that we have is only intended to meet the needs of a leisure boater.
