Shenton Battlefield moorings



Here I am Rune
Distance 8.9 miles
Total 512 Locks 17 Tunnels
Running total mileage 765.1 miles

A scorching day’s travel back down to the Shenton Battlefield moorings for the night. Return trip through Snarestone Tunnel passed fairly straightforwardly since there was little traffic on the canal today. The only mechanical development today was that the nut on the stop solenoid decided to start to work loose again, relatively easy to fix but a bit of a pig to get to.
We are just short of halfway back down the canal, but since we have until 30th to get to Tamworth we are still comfortably on schedule. Hope this scorching weather holds out for the rest of the week.
