Our mooring tonight near bridge 157 just past Wheelock on Trent & Mersey
Awaiting clearance by the tunnel keeper to enter Harecastle tunnel , they shut the doors as you enter and start up the large fans - which sound like jet engines behind you!!!. The tunnel roof half way through drops by about 2 ft for approx 100yards- its not like Braunston or Blisworth at all!
An old pottery we passed on the way to the southern entrance of Harecastle tunnel
