A notable landmark is the striking spire of All Saints' Church, which is visible for miles and serves as a well-known guide for both road travellers and canal users navigating the Grand Union and Oxford canals.
Historically, Braunston flourished due to its position at the heart of the canal network linking London and the Midlands. Today, while the waterways are primarily used for leisure, Braunston Marina remains a focal point for boating enthusiasts and hosts an annual narrowboat rally. The village is also home to the distinctive Horsley Iron Works twin cast-iron bridge, an elegant example of 19th-century engineering.
