Is this a waste of funds?

0 Locks, 10.16 miles. Now moored at Shackerstone.

Today we travelled from Market Bosworth visitor moorings to the end of Asby Canal before heading back to Shackerstone where we are currently moored.

£125,000 was required for this wildlife area at the end of Ashby Canal before they were giving permission to restore more of the Canal. You decide whether it was justified.

Work in progress at the Ashby Canal Head of Navigation. Ashby Canal Society shop for supplies and information.

 2027 locks, 3978.45 miles, 76 tunnels, 130 swing bridges and 54 lift bridges since Nov 2006
