Nantwich -> Llangollen Canal nr Bridge 2 12/7/2020


Engine start 538.7 12:15
Engine stop 540.7 14:13

2 hours / 3 miles / 4 locks


First trip out since Covid-19 pandemic started (or even earlier due to moving into new flat).

Arrived at Nantwich Basin around 11:00. First long drive for AJS since start of lockdown. Got everything on board, had lunch then set off about 12:15.

Hot sunshine. Quite a few boats but no queue at Hurleston flight. We obviously hit the lunchtime lull.



Boat in front of us could not get into Lock 2 so we were waved through and they had to reverse back down the first lock.

Filled up with water at the services then moved along to the good mooring between Bridges 2 & 3 which has a nice view of a farmhouse.

Went for a walk around Hurleston reservoir in the evening.
