| The Grand Union Inn The Inn was situated on the Grand Union Canal by Crick Wharf and was used by boatmen and villagers. During the 1820's and 30's, John Foster, a farmer, rented the premises from the Union Canal Company. In the early 20th century Walter John Crofts was the publican and a coal merchant at the wharf. The pub was more commonly known as The Wharf. Today the building is no longer occupied and has been left derelict. |
