Here I am Rune
Distance 6.8 miles
Total 1052 Locks 58 Tunnels
Running total mileage 1420.7miles
After a bit of a late start whilst I went to get some
shopping and a replacement washing line, we had a pleasant days ‘chug’ up to
Fradley. I didn’t get quite as far as I thought as I wanted to moor at Fradley
Junction but due to a bit of a miscount on the bridges we are actually about a
mile short of the junction. Stopped off for lunch at Huddlesford Junction where
the old Lichfield Canal used to come in, it would certainly save a lot of time
if they managed to reopen that bit of canal since it would access you to the
top of the BCN. Travelling down the Birmingham and Fazeley through Salford
Junction and on up the Tame Valley and Rushall Canal would take at least three
days if not more at the rate we travel but down the old Lichfield Canal if
could probably be done in a day.
