This is the first lift bridge we’ve seen so we stood and watched it in action.
The lady got off the boat and wound it halfway up then the man got off and took over to get it high enough to pass through.
The weather was lovely and there were so many boats on this stretch. The most picturesque section we’ve seen so far with a large lock flight and pretty cottages.
A beautiful shot with super reflections - fav! I find canal walking a fascinating experience, especially some of the interesting routes through out major cities. The engineering is amazing as well.
That is a great project for you and Pat to undertake! I don't know Birmingham's canals at all, but based on my walks beside canals in other parts of the country there will be so much of interest for you to discover. Happy Walking!
