Again it was a lovely bright sunny but cool day, just a hint of frost on the grass. It was quite busy today, we met 2 boats, one in a bridge hole and a paddle boarder out enjoying the sun.
As well as working on Snarestone Wharf, the unrestored section of canal the ACA have also installed mile posts along the length of the canal and several benches for walkers to rest their legs plus some interpretation boards.
Passing the new development at market Bosworth I was able to get a photo of the amenity area with rustic wooden swings etc.
We carried on passing under a modern road bridge, I am not sure what the railings are for on the off side, there is nowhere to walk to.
When we reached Sutton Wharf we were pleased to see one vacant mooring spot on the visitor mooring pontoons, these are of course 14 day moorings this time of the year as opposed to a 2 day mooring limit in the summer months.
