On the River Weaver

Well after a very hectic trip to Plymouth we think we have new tenants just the references to finish then all set to go. We were back on board on Wednesday. Since then we have been quite busy. On Thursday we took the car back to Dave and Dawn in Stockport. After feeding us with bacon sandwiches ( we must look undernourished NOT) Dave dropped us in Stockport where we spent time looking around. Some lovely old buildings and lots of shops. We will have to return at some point if only to visit the Hat Museum.
Anderton Boat Lift, also known as Cathedral of the Canals

On Friday we were joined by Dave and Dawn and their friends Katherine and Robert and we came down the lift on to the River Weaver. Of course after such exertion there was only one thing to do and we retired to the Stanley Arms for a meal. We are now moored as seen below. Northwhich is a lovely little town with several liftable buildings. This is due to nearby salt mining and subsidence. The buildings could be jacked up or even moved if needed.

Moored below Town Swing Bridge at Northwhich



Just one of the many lovely buildings here
