| In Kinver Lock |
We are on the move today and the sun was shining as we set
off along the canal and soon came to Kinver Lock. It was ready for us so it didn’t take long
and soon we were chugging on again.
 |
| Going through Dunsley Tunnel |
We stopped at the services to fill up with water, get rid of
rubbish, etc., and then we were off again.
 |
| In Stewpony Lock |
 |
| Weir by the lock |
We then came to Dunsley Tunnel which is only 25yds and then next was
Stewpony lock. Once through there we
passed the Stourbridge canal and then the next bit of canal is very winky
wonky.
We chugged on in the sunshine and moored at the site of the
Gothersley Round House, which was built in 1805 as part of the ironworks, and
lived in until the 1930s. it is a lovely
quiet sunny spot.

| Ashwood Nurseries |
We had lunch then went for a walk up to the bridge and down
a path and out onto the road. We went to
do a cache but unfortunately couldn’t find it, so then we walked on along the
road and came to Ashwood Nurseries so thought we would go in and have a
look. It was a really nice place but
absolutely heaving with people there was hundreds there, the busiest garden centre
we have been to!
 |
| Our Barbie |
There was a really nice coffee shop so we had a coffee and a
scone sat in the sunshine then walked back to the canal and back to the boat.
It was a lovely sunny evening so we had a BBQ and sat
outside. It was lovely and our first for
this year so let’s hope we have many more.
We are staying here tonight then off again tomorrow.
