Great Haywood to Stone


Moving on to Stone


The junction with the Staffs and Worcs.  Last time we were here we were on catch up crazy!!!


Yet more dredging going on...


and back filling the bank.


Ollie has slowed down this cruise, he will be twelve in September.


Bridge 82 . Built of brick and stone for the benefit of Sandon's gentry, it echos the high aesthetic values of the 18th century.


Aston Lock ( 26 of 77)


and we are half way to Preston Brook


The former Joules Brewery, Stone.



Newcastle Road Lock and we manage to find a mooring space just above it.

We had a lovely surprise at Star Lock on the way into Stone - who should be wandering along but Joy and Hannah with baby Harry.  No photo I am afraid- too busy gossiping, cooing over Harry and locking!!!

10 miles and 8 locks in 5 1/2 hours.
