Sep/Oct 2006 - Etruria to Peak Forest Canal

A very short two day cruise due to British Waterways winter work restrictions.

A relatively easy trip up to the Peak Forest Canal. A short delay at Broadhurst Swing Bridge which had suffered a power failure, another boater had already called out British Waterways to fix it but unfortunately when the bridge was fixed their boat would not start!
