Here are a couple more photos of the Kennet in Saltaire, as it celebrated the two-hundredth anniversary of the opening of the Leeds-Liverpool Canal by recreating the first full navigation in 1816. The vessel is a restored working barge that is the floating museum and educational centre of the Leeds & Liverpool Canal Society.
Very interesting....a floating museum. I'm always stunned by how different your view is. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteQuite a graceful boat.
ReplyDeleteSo many people came out to see it!
ReplyDeleteLots of people to greet it.
ReplyDeleteFrom time to time I have had thoughts of taking a long boat trip around the canals, but so far I haven't done it.
