Diesel and Aqueducts



Today we found a diesel supplier (Anglo Welsh at Wooton Wawen) open on Sunday so filled up; just in time as the tank was close to dry.

Anglo Welsh are on the Wooton Wawen aqueduct and there are three of these iron trunk aqueducts in a few miles of each other (Yarningale, Wooton Wawen and the more spectacular Edstone).



All three are the same design, with the towpath at the canal bed level, giving walkers a duck's eye view.

Total distance is 9 miles, 3¾ furlongs and 18 locks
