So nice to be out walking! Wonderful shot of the locks.

Don't get carried away with all this outdoor activity, Peter! But if you can continue with such photos, I'm all for it.

@louannwarren Thank you Lou Ann normally I would not walk along the canal on a weekend as I end up with to many people in my shots, but I could not wait to get out and about again:)

@lesip Thank you Leslie for your interesting comment, like your canals ours are now used for recreation and no longer for transporting goods:)

@onewing Thank you Babs it was busy with walkers and cyclists, I don't now if it was down to it being the weekend or people getting back out after the COVID-19 restrictions:)

@pattyblue Thank you for your comment Pat, before the restrictions I tended to walk the canals a couple of days a week, I have a few to choose from around here:)

@ludwigsdiana Thank you so much Diana yes its old,
Construction started on this part of the Calder and Hebble canal in 1759, and the initial scheme, which included 5.7 miles (9.2 km) of new cuts, was completed in 1770 and has remained navigable since it was opened, it links through other canals from Leeds to Manchester all the way to Liverpool:)
