Thames and Severn Canal • Stroudwater Navigation • Gloucester Basin • Canals through the Cotswolds

Описание: The Thames and Severn Canal was built as an continuity canal further east towards the Thames, extending on from the slightly earlier Stroudwater Navigation which, itself, linked the Severn River to Stroud, primarily for transporting coal to the town.

During the 1950s much of the waterway became disused, filled in and dried up but, over the last few decades, dedicated teams of people have worked hard to re-open much of the canal route. It is not fully navigable – yet – but well worth an explore.

My wife and I have enjoyed our wanderings here today. If you have any observations, please do comment in the space below.

==============================================

Taking care on the hills:
I’m not a pro, expert or any kind of leader on the mountains. I step out for fun and my own personal enjoyment. What I do is at my own risk. I do not suggest anyone does what I do, the way I do it, where I go or anything else in my videos. I’m always mindful of my own safety and doing what is right with respect to the environment and others on the hills. If you watch my videos, please enjoy them as they are and don’t necessarily assume they are examples of excellent practice. I’m learning along the way too.
As always, every fell-walker goes out on their route taking on responsibility for their own safety and wellbeing, accessing areas that are open to the public or asking for permission as necessary. I totally support the #LeaveNoTrace campaign and encourage everyone to follow that too. So, if you venture out, please respect the environment, be considerate to others along the route, stay safe, wear, carry and use the clothes and equipment that you need for your trek, have ample food and drink for the duration of your trek, navigate carefully and keep within the limitations of your fitness and abilities. Let others know where you plan to go and when you will return.
Stay Safe. Enjoy!
