Started off the day by winding the boat. That is, turning it round. Above shows the side arm that we had to turn into before we could continue back along the canal.
We stopped by the bridge with the awkward kink to go shopping. I love the sign in French, English and German to point out the shops 100mtrs away. Slightly out of date now but, nevertheless, there are shops nearby.
The Macclesfield Canal is younger than the Trent and Mersey but has an older feel to it. The bridges are mostly made with stone and not bricks. And they're all slightly different.
We stopped for a brief lunch just past the boatyard at Sherborne Wharf since the day was definitely getting hotter. Afterwards we moved on to Hall Green and tied up for the night. Nicely in the shade and closer to the locks that we will need to tackle tomorrow.
