Fradley



Here I am Rune
Distance 8.6 miles
Total 525 Locks 17 Tunnels
Running total mileage 806.8 miles

Slightly better effort today having achieved 8.6 miles and now passed the 800 mile marker. First thing tomorrow we will be onto the Trent and Mersey Canal which will mean that we have completed the full length of the Coventry Canal. Interesting point today was that for the first 4 miles we were on the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal but that reverts to the Coventry Canal again at Whittington (there is a boundary stone to mark the transition but I didn’t have my camera handy!). The weather was very accommodating today, black clouds for a lot of the day but it didn’t drop any rain until we had moored up for the day. Forecast looks OK for tomorrow.
