Nature seems to have almost de-converted it again!

 

 

I've had my eye on her for a couple of weeks. She does a good home.

I have no recent photographs of CLENT but I am aware that it is currently on the bank at Braunston undergoing its second restoration (first restored by Malcolm Braine, Norton Canes, launched July 1980).

 

I have not seen CLEE for a while but the last time I did it looked ready for some renovations, and this appears to be supported in post 12 of this thread.

 

The great thing about old Joshers is that you can ignore them and buy a Grand Union Canal Carrying Company Ltd. boat instead 

Old Josher?

There's  a wooden motor at Alvecote that came from Billinge Green , recovered in the 80's. She's looking for a sympathetic owner, having reached the last chance saloon.

Do tell me more.....

Cheers guys! That's ace gen! Glad some have been saved!!

[What is a banter??]

I always thaught banter was military folk tearing each other apart in Whitby ways. To show love of course.

I won't be taking the narrowboat in there. We have a wee tender. However, my dad has told me that a chap from Runcorn had a load out few years back. So it may just be a pleasure paddle.

I can remember there use to be one in Croxton Flash but that is not there now

Croxton flash. I'll have a look-see when we pass. Cheers again.

Well the top flash in your photo is now a marina and the only hulks I know of in the area are down on the River Weaver

Ahhhhhh. That's good for the cut but bad for my hulk endeavour. Cheers bud.

How doo all. 

 

I'm new to the forum but not to boats. I have grown up on them. And now after a savage medical discharge from the military me and my wife are living aboard. 

 

Any who, i was hoping someone could tell me about the hulks scuttled in the collapsed salt mines Middlewich way. I have always admired them and just curious if anyone has some solid gen and even pictures?
