Travelling the Inland Waterways

Pictures and Highlights

The following pages are a personal record of our travels on Narrowboat "Bluebell" from 1996 to 2001 and other boats since then. As we have travelled we have taken the odd photograph and noted points of interest. Where only part of the waterway has been travelled, this is made clear in the heading. We have included the date the waterway was last travelled, but note that this may only refer to part of the canal. In other words, some of the text may refer to a much earlier date. Please be aware that our findings are very personal and that the march of time may have made them out of date!

Each waterways leaves its own impression. We've included some key phrases for each. Perhaps you recognise some of them? Funnily enough quite a high proportion of recommendations are real ale pubs!
