If you cross Castle Boulevard from Brewhouse Yard and turn the corner into Wilford Street, just round the corner you will find the canal and a little further, access to the Inland Revenue site. The area is worth exploring a little to see the extraordinary architecture of the Inland Revenue site and the towpath along the canal. You will also get good views of the castle from below and if you keep walking come to the Sainsbury car park and Castle Marina.
Another attraction is on the other side of Wilford Street. Walk down Canal Street and find one of the alleys that takes you down to the canal. Visit the Canal House bar and restaurant and find that the canal enters the bar and you may find a barge moored there within the bar! The waterfront area has several bars and restaurants and you can sit out in a pleasant area and watch the traffic on the canal. This is also a popular evening venue.
