Llangollen Canal north towards Chester, on the Shropshire Union Canal
Hooray - just heavy, sharp showers today! - we progressed north up the Shropshire Union and for the first time encountered 14 feet wide locks and one of them a lock made from iron, as our pic shows - but it wasn't rusty!
We set off on foot this afternoon to visit Beeston Castle, but it was just too far in the rain, unfortunately.
7 miles;4 locks

The weather shouldnt spoil a fantastic holiday, I am jealous I would like to be on a canal boat right now. Enjoy the sites I think there is no better way to see the countryside and areas other holidays cannot reach.
