In for repair





Map Reference SP 69468 91651

Distance Travelled 10.6 miles



Total 36Locks 3 tunnels

Stayed at Kilby Bridge for 2 nights and had the relatives on board for lunch on Saturday. Decided against going further to the winding point at Bridge 98, Blaby Bridge as it is reported to be badly silted up and would have meant going on to Aylestone to turn around, which would have included a number of unnecessary locks.

Back to Foxton Locks Inn for Sunday evening meal, would highly recommend this pub as the prices are reasonable and the food is good. The views of the canal are ideal particularly on a busy hot day, it wasn’t however busy or hot on our visit!!

We are now at Debdale Wharf Marina where we will be remaining until Wednesday or Thursday (hopefully!) whilst our alternator is sorted out, then heading south.
