Day 14 - Stone and Wedgwood

Tuesday, 15 April 2008

We are moored near the Wedgwood factory at Barlaston and had a very interesting visit around the works. The bronze above is of the man himself.

Day 14 - 8miles and 9 locks
Total to date 122 miles and 34 locks
Good cappuccinos to date now 3 (last one in Stone) which is a lovely canal friendly town.



We have had sun and some very heavy showers today- guess which the above is?

This is the front view of the late Lord Lichfields country residence which is very nice and has a lovely atmosphere inside.
So far we have seen two lots of new ducklings with 4 swans nest sitting.
Tomorrow is Stoke on Trent which is not boater friendly and therefore requires a dash through so we can get on the Caldon canal which is supposed to be very lovely but may not be internet friendly- speak to you soon or it may be next week!
