What is the picture?

Here's a picture that I took yesterday evening ... I stopped and looked over a hedge and in place of fields that had previously been there ...
... a further view, and perhaps a more generous clueThis is the new marina under construction at Foxhangers, with moorings for up to 250 boats. Once water is allowed in, those standing structures will be pontoons and I'm sure that the operators are hopeful that the place will be filled with narrow boats. Although the Kennet and Avon Canal already seems to have lots of boats on it, you'll see when walking that the locks are only in use for a tiny fraction of the time, so this increased population can be sorted.
And I expect we may get some guests coming to stay at Well House Manor before going to Foxhangers to view a boat for sale, or before joining a group for a canal cruise.
