Kingswood to Hockley Heath

Up the Lapworth flight. Hot day, and we pulled up at Hockley Heath at (late) lunchtime. So it was into the Wharf Inn for a carvery lunch for a fiver. For a fiver, good value. Afterwards it was a very sleepy afternoon.

Lift Bridge 28 is a nightmare, with its hydraulics only working with a bit of manual assistance.

3.2 miles, 19 locks, 2 lift bridges, 4.5 hours engine time.
