Much of the information about the Wilts & Berks Canal has been lost since the company was dissolved in the years following the 1914 Act of Abandonment.

The Partners are aiming to make as much information as possible viewable from these pages.

Swindon Borough Council's Library team has created a local history section called the Swindon Collection. The Swindon Flickr™ Wilts & Berks Canal images display some of the working life of the waterway.

The Swindon and Wiltshire History Centre hold some of the original Wilts & Berks Canal Company record books and maps and have given permission for some of the information to be used on these pages. Please follow the WB Company Maps located on the adjacent menu.
