It's good to see C&RT doing some much needed dredging.
Even if they do pop out in front of us!!!
Along with the Swan family!!!
So lovely to see.
All the mud and gunge is dug out and loaded onto a tug for disposal.
Stenson Lock - 12'4" and a gusher!!!
This is the last wide lock until we get to Kings Lock in Middlewich.

Burton-on-Trent is known widely for its brewing industry.
Originated in the 13thC; when the monks at Burton Abbey discovered that an excellent beer could be brewed from the town's waters, because of their high gypsum content. At it's peak there were 31 breweries producing 3 million barrels of ale annually, alas, now only a few remain.
