We were re-tracing our steps from a couple of days ago today, leaving our lovely moorings at Coole Pilate and heading back into Nantwich. The two locks at Hack Green both needed a top up, but were polished off pretty quickly and we were back on the embankment overlooking the rooftops by mid morning. Once moored up, I got the bucket out and washed the roof of the boat, a job that badly needed doing.
After lunch we had a walk through part of Nantwich we’ve not been to before, mostly residential, with one or two much older houses. This turns out to be the only photo I have taken all day.
This afternoon I have made another podcast for release in a fortnight’s time. One came out today, which even though I do say so myself, I think is quite fascinating. It looks at the way water is brought down the Llangollen Canal to Hurleston Reservoir, and then becomes drinking water for the people of Crewe and Nantwich. Have a listen here.
3 miles, 2 locks. (51 miles, 26 locks)
