My travels around the canal network of the UK as a solo boater living aboard narrowboat Moorland Rose
Ep200 Going Tidal
Making my way from Worcester I rejoin the River Severn and head south. My destination is Gloucester which involves navigating the tidal river. Is it as scary as it sounds? I do have a problem to overcome mooring up on the river.

Ep197 A Bridge Too Far?

A new canal to me The Droitwich Barge Canal takes me into Droitwich Spa where I spend a couple of nights in the basin before continuing along the Droitwich Junction Canal. I have to pass under the motorway to complete the journey but it has notoriously little headroom. The published figures state that it is the same as the air-draught on Moorland Rose. It is going to be close. Intro Music Song:...

Ep195 Rain Stops Play
มุมมอง 433หลายเดือนก่อน
After an uneventful stop in Kidderminster, I finally reach the end of the Staffs & Worcester Canal. My plan is to head down the River Severn, but we have had some days of constant rain and the river is on red boards and is not navigable at present. I can only hope that it will dry up. Fingers were crossed. Intro Music Song: Scott Holmes - Upbeat Party Music provided by Creator Audio Creative Co...
Ep194 Going Down To Carpet Town
มุมมอง 740หลายเดือนก่อน
It is time to leave the pleasant countryside behind and head for the urban surroundings of Kidderminster. But there is a surprising amount of scenery on the way.. I find a cave beside a lock that it is claimed was used to stable boat horses. Check out why it doesn't ring true to me.

Last time I left you at the top of Stourton Lock flight. I had managed to get Moorland Rose wedged in the lock mouth. Eventually getting free I return to the Staffs & Worcester and find out the origins of the name of Stewponey lock.

A lovely cruise South from my stop at Wombourne. The locks are spaced apart and I can enjoy a leisurely cruise between each one. I find a peaceful mooring in the country.

Ep186 Bridge Strike

Continuing my journey along the Staffs & Worcester Canal, I am delayed by a stoppage at one of the bridges that cross the canal. A vehicle has run into the bridge and knocked a lot of the brickwork into the water. I have to wait until C&RT can get it fixed.
