Clifton To Willoughby, 3 Locks.


Back to the country. 










It seemed a whole lot quieter this morning so off we went to Hillmorton where there is all this work going on upgrading the moorings (re-doing the bankside).






There is still nowhere to moor though, boats are even two abreast. The water point was just about available so we took advantage and topped up.






A lovely day at Hillmorton bottom lock with its lock gate sculpture lying spread eagled on the grass.








The mooring situation was no better at the top of the locks, not a single space left.............. so we headed off out into the country.







This bridge seems to be even worse this time around.
BW have put a laminated A4 sign on a stick asking boats to slow down as the bridge is badly damaged.

That's OK then.









Only one hour away from Braunston and the countryside is at it's best.







The Natives are friendly as well as being sooooo cute.






Until next time.......................
