Of locks and boats

Back on the Stourbridge Canal, heading towards Stourton, a narrow boat passes an abandoned boat

Always a sad sight to see 

From its stern it looks as if it was a butty boat. The one without the engine, towed by its partner boat with a motor.

Stourton locks: this is lock number two, complete with fisherman

There are four locks altogether in this flight

They are so close that the pound between them has to be extended to cope with water flow

Back home, and Dunsley Farm is selling off some land.
