Today marks the ninth anniversary of taking ownership of Briar Rose. Our miles and locks are a bit higher this year, because we had a longer trip in September plus the shortened trip this spring; the figures should have been a lot higher!
This year we have travelled on the following waterways:
- BCN -- Old and New Mainlines, Gower Branch
- Bridgewater Canal
- Bridgewater Canal Leigh Arm
- Coventry Canal
- Droitwich Barge and Junction Canals
- Grand Union Leicester Arm
- Grand Union Mainline
- Leeds and Liverpool Leigh Arm
- North Oxford Canal
- River Avon
- River Severn
- Shropshire Union Mainline
- Shropshire Union Middlewich Arm
- Staffs and Worcester Canal
- Stratford Canal
- Trent and Mersey Canal
- Wardle Canal
- Worcester and Birmingham Canal
In addition, Catherine, Nigel and the children borrowed the boat for a week in October and went down to Aylesbury and back. Their trip is not included in our figures.
