Sparks Bridge, No. 35 to Whitchurch Arm, Whitchurch - Llangollen Canal




Coming to the lift bridge

We are on the move this morning, just about a mile up to the Whitchurch arm and hopefully we can moor down the arm as we are off to South Wales tomorrow until Thursday to visit our friends Ken and Sue so would be good to leave the boat in the arm.

Through we go
Bridge open for us
We untied and set off around the corner and came to a lift bridge.  I got off and opened the bridge and Kev came through, a boat was coming the other way so I let them through then closed the bridge.

Going under the road bridge
We went on and came to the next lift bridge but it was open as a boat was coming through and they let us go through before they shut it again, so that was good saved me a job!

Turning into the Whitchurch Arm
Coming to the Winding Hole
We went under a couple of road bridges and then turned into the Whitchurch Arm.  It was quiet, so we went down, turned around and moored up.  It is nice down here off the main canal and a nice sunny spot.

We are now staying here a few days, off to Wales tomorrow, coming back Thursday, then on Friday we will do some shopping in the town and meet our friend Jane for coffee when she finishes work.
