Off the Llangollen, back on the Shropshire Union

Wrenbury Church Tower

Wrenbury Church Tower
 Apologies for the lack of a blog yesterday.  After 2 days with no or very poor internet connection we are back in civilisation with a good service.  We only needed to travel for 2 hours yesterday and arrived at Wrenbury at lunchtime.  After eating we walked the couple of miles into the village, bought a cake, and looked round the moderately interesting church.  The photos show mediaeval carvings on the church tower.





Waiting for the next lock at the top of Hurleston Locks with distant views of the Penines

This morning we set off at 8:50 and moored at the Alvechurch Boat Hire Centre by the Wrenbury electrically operated lift bridge for a 250 hour oil change.  An hour later we weere able to leave continuing to cruise down the Llangollen Canal.  We reached the end of the Llangollen Canal at the bottom of the 4 Hurleston Locks and moored up for the night at 14:20.  The day and been dry, cool and breezy - pleasant boating weather.  Within minutes of us stopping it started to rain
