We decided to take a day off from working on the boat. Instead we would take Charlie for a long walk down the canal at Dutton as we haven't been there for a while, maybe we could see for ourselves the extent of the breach there.
We parked up near the main road at The Tunnel Top Pub and walked down to the canal just after Preston Brook tunnel, The first lock we came to was fenced off and wedged shut with a piece of timber as you would expect.

This was the last stretch of water before we got to bridge 213, you could see the water level was lower than usual but there were still some boats. It was a warm and sunny walk with the mist still lifting off the water.
