This is the record of six months living in the London waterways community, making the long journey from Manchester on a traditional narrowboat built in 1937. It tells the story of the contemporary London waterways: a floating slum at it's worst, a bohemian, alternative, vibrant community at best.It sets the story of London's waterways community in the wider context of the 270 years since the canal age began, and asks: who are the true inheritors of the waterways? It celebrates continuity, and the ever-evolving nature of tradition. The story is told through the voices of those who live it, with a focus on the everyday, beauty seen under every concrete overbridge and in each pile of fly-tipping. It places London's floating population as an indispensable chapter in the long history of the waterways.It is a love letter to the waterways of England, and a rallying cry for what they can be in the future.
