the whole thing, towpath, houses, and any road or pathway between the green

Was there ever a towpath there? Isn't approaching that bank by boat
impossible at low tide? I think that the towpath now is on the other
side of the river in this length, next to the navigation channel which
has sufficient depth for navigation at low tide.
