![]() | Today I start at Penkridge Bridge. There are 7 locks in the 3 miles to Gailey. And Gailey is the start of the summit pound of the Staffs and Worcs Canal which lasts until Compton (visited tomorrow). However, as it's still hilly after Gailey, the canal twists quite a lot as it follows the contours (as shown in the above map). As I get to Penkridge Bridge, I see this boat.
