Ashby Canal view |
Stoke Golding church overlooks our mooring |
Getting boring, yet another very hot and sunny day and attractive scenery. After leaving our mooring we stopped at Hinckley to shop. Unfortunately the nearest shop , a small Coop, was more than half a mile walk from the nearest mooring. Never mind, we walked there, bought sufficient provisions to last a few days, walked back and set off again.
The photo shows a picture of another bridge. A probem with taking canal pictures is that the bridges are the only things to photograph. General views of attractive scenery just dont work
We stopped for the day at 13:00 between the villages of Stoke Golding and Dadlington rather earlier than the plans said but we will catch up tomorrow.
In the afternoon I walked into Dadlington but apart from the small 13th century church where some of the dead from the Battle of Bosworth (Richard 3rd, a horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse etc) were buried there is little to see. I will be saying more about the battle tomorrow.
