We had always just gone straight past the junction before and never had enough time to investigate further!
Spotted these 2 moor hens fighting, a territorial dispute perhaps.
Tight right hander as you come out of the junction. Luckily nothing was coming. Onward towards Nuneaton...
Some of the gardens in Nuneaton were very smart and formally embraced the canal! This stretch seemed a lot cleaner than last time we came through here, but there still are enough shopping trollies to keep the supermarkets busy.
Hanging baskets are coming on well! Don't think this one has moved for a while.
No sooner have you entered the urban area of Nuneaton, than you leave it into this beautiful countryside.
We moored overnight at Hartshill where this elegant British Waterways maintenance yard takes pride of place. When we win the lottery, we will buy it!
We pulled up outside for water this morning, leaving the butty on the towpath side and Richard had a play with the camera... Scooby on guard duty as ever! He is getting really old now, doesn't want to walk anywhere and spends a lot of time asleep. He does love it on the roof.
We stopped at Atherstone locks for the day and had a walk into town to do some shopping. Depending on the weather, we may do the flight tomorrow......
