Sunday 5 April 2015

Left Yarwell at 7.30am.  We have been told that there is a pub called the Kings Head at Wadenhoe where you can moor free overnight if you eat in the pub – Kings Head here we come! 

Through Elton and Warmington Locks.  Emergency stop at Fotheringhay Bridge to remove the chimney again!  It’s beautiful around here and the weather has cheered up too.  You can moor here at Castle Farm for £4 a night.  Through Perio, Cotterstock, Ashton, Lower Barnwell, Upper Barnwell, Lilford and Wadenhoe Locks arriving at the Kings Head at 4pm.  Great Meal and nice mooring.


The Wier at Elton Lock


Our first wheel operated lock - seemed like fun the first time!


This is better than a workout at the gym.

The bridge at Fotheringhay - will our chimney go under there?


No - quick Steve, take it down.

 

 
The water level is so high - when the lock is full it is running over the back.

 
This looks fun - although they seem to spend most of their time stuck in the mud!
 

 


Lilford Hall.

 
The Kings Head at Wadenhoe - great meal.....and mooring.
