We had a lovely relaxed sun soaked cruise up to Brewood and moored for lunch before walking in to the village to get some supplies. What a lovely village with a very good butcher so for supper this evening we have Liver & Bacon one of my favourite meals of all time especially how Sharon cook's it.
Sharon took this photo with her Hudl of a Heron which was just keeping its self ahead of us along the canal. A really good reflection as well I think.
We have moored just past Stretton Aqueduct which was built when the canal was originally the Birmingham & Liverpool canal which started at Nantwich and ended at Autherley Junction, it was built by Thomas Telford in 1832, its a really lovely aqueduct with some very nice stone work, the aqueduct crosses over the A5.
