Meeting nb Kyle on Shenton Aqueduct

We stopped at Shenton Aqueduct on the Ashby Canal so I could take some photos.

The aqueduct is massive, brick, solid - very unlike a soaring iron trunk aqueduct such as the Pontcysyllte.

The two sides are remarkably similar to each other.

When I climbed up to the top, on the opposite side to where we moored, a boat I recognised was approaching.

It was Kyle, steered by Brian Jarrett of RN Diesel Engine Co.
