Day 20 - Acton Trussell to Hatherton Branch

Sunday 28th September - 7 miles, 10 locks

Cruised through several locks hoping to moor at Penkridge visitor moorings - however it was not to be as there was a fishing competition on. We moored opposite Otherton boat haven and walked back into the village. The gaol and shops were closed apart from the co-op but the village was very pretty.


Taking on water at Gailey Wharf
Continued cruising after lunch arriving at Gailey top lock where we visited the roundhouse canal/gift shop. I bought a puzzle and two horse brasses - Fradley junction and Coventry canal.

Cruised on for a short while mooring at Hatherton marina for the night. It has been a really warm day - Paul's shorts came back out and tee shirts all the way.
