More locks to Kidsgrove

Church Lawton bottom locks

 Another rain free lock-filled day heading south on the Trent & Mersey Canal though not as hard work as yesterday.  After 13 locks in 4 hours we moored at lunchtime at Kidsgrove, a small industrial town just north of Stoke on Trent.  In the afternoon we walked into the small town centre to see if there was any chance of a decent Indian meal this evening.  The town centre shops are pretty uninspiring and basic and none of the small number of restaurants tempted us at all.  So back to the boat via a quick visit to Tescos to keep us going until our next major stop at Stone.
