| Leaving Marple behind us |
 |
| Lovely view chugging along |
The sun was not shining this morning and it was very
overcast but no rain yet. We walked down
to the Butchers we found yesterday to get some home cooked ham, home-made
corned beef, pork pie, sausages rolls and a Venison and Turkey pie. They make all this in the shop and the pies and
sausage rolls were still hot! It is such a great butchers and anytime we are up this way, we will make sure we pay them a visit.

| Passing Goyt Mill |
 |
| Passing a nice canal side garden |
We got back to the boat and then set off along the canal and
still no rain so that was good and soon we were passing Goyt Mill, it looks much
more impressive coming this way than on the way up.
After a couple of miles we came to Higher Poynton where we
moored on the way up and we stopped at the water point to fill up.

| Hag Footbridge |
That done, we set off on our way again and went under a
footbridge called Hag Footbridge, Kev muttered some remark about it being a
bridge named after me, can’t think why!! Rude!!
On we went a bit further and moored opposite Lyme View
Marina at Adlington. We did get some
rain but then it eased off so we went out for a walk.
 |
| The Miners Arms |
There is a pub not far from the canal called the Miners Arms
but we resisted the temptation to go in there and walked on by. We walked down the road for a bit then came
back up and walked over the bridge to the marina to see if they had a Chandlers
but they didn’t so we went back to the boat as it had started raining again.
We are staying here tonight and it is now raining hard and looks like its set for the rest of the evening. We are heading on tomorrow as it
is supposed to be sunny!
