Boston Manor to Hammersmith walk

One of the best walks I have developed. The walk starts by visiting Boston Manor Park with its famous manor house. There is then a short walk along the Grand Union Canal to reach Brentford Gauging Locks. Following that there is a walk along the Thames Path passing Kew Bridge to reach Chiswick House Gardens where there is an extended circuit before rejoining the Thames Path and finishing in Hammersmith. A route description of this walk will eventually appear in my LondonParksWay.com website.
