Parbold visitor moorings ?

[W+T]

I have been trying to find on CRT website the length of time you can stay on the Parbold visitor moorings between Windmill Bridge 37 and Aqueduct 16.

 

Any folk been there or know please as will be hoping to get there this weekend. Need  7 Day stay.

Well thats good enough for me. I am doing the Ribble link end of the month so need a good stop over to leave he boat for for a few weeks.

 

Thanks

Surely "unrestricted" means 14 days

Correct. 14 days by the cafe and along around the corner, but 48 hrs on VM through bridge. Very vague as to where VM's begin and end, I have had a few arguments over the years!

There is a length of Armco just North of the 24 hour moorings at Rufford (just south of the winding hole) for a 14 day mooring. Dead handy as the station is but a few hundred yards away.

So plenty to choose from, nice one, dont want to get there and all space is gone. 

 

Thanks for the help

Yes there is a long stretch of unmarked mooring potential before the bridge. Only problem is you would be on stakes, which maybe not ideal for a long unattended stay.

Not the best then. It will be atleast a week. If only a week i can then move to Rufford. 

 

Csn look at other place i guess. Just will be leaving the car at the mooring area. Its an 8hr cruise from Worsley/Boothstown to Parbold. And day before its a near 12hr run from Hyde. 

 

Dont want to go much further than Parbold if we don't need to.

I have a vague recollection that there might be a few rings - enough for one boat - shortly before the bridge but don’t count on my memory!

Wouldn't worry too much about stakes. Just double pin it. There was an abandoned Springer there for about 18 months.

TBH I can'tremeber either, which is a pretty poor effort since I walked dogs along there for 40 years (not continuously.)
