What was the reason for building the brownsover arm branch of the oxford canal at rugby?

The Brownsover Arm actually came first. It was part of the original route of the northern section of the Oxford Canal, built in the late 18th century by James Brindley. An early canal engineer, he followed the contours of the land, avoiding the complexities of too many tunnels and embankments His routes meandered all of over the countryside, and were groundbreaking (literally) when first built. By the 1820s, when competition from the railways intensified, some canal companies sought to speed up commercial travel, and so ungraded their canals by straightening them. The North Oxford was one such canal. Where Brindley's old route was cut, truncated lengths like the Bownsover Arm were left. Some remained in use for many years, while others gradually silted up and disappeared. Anyone travelling the North Oxford today can see some of these lost arms where towpath bridges cross them.
