Ellesmere

Another lovely day for cruising.  Past Blakemere


Contractors refilling the towpath with stone up ahead at Blakemere.  The job made very awkward by boats moored infront and behind the works.  No one on them of course. 

Exiting Ellesmere tunnel.  BW notice either side of the tunnel says "Two way working".  Really? 
I don't think so!

Tree fellers haven't yet reached here, but the trees have been marked with a great red dot, indicating that they're for the chop.

Just a couple of the many sculptures around here.  There's a sculpture trail [click] for you to follow.


Major works going on at the wharf.  Huge complex of retirement apartments


Lovely old houses on the way to the White Hart - which is holding a beer festival on Friday 6th April to Monday 9th.  Large selection of real ales, music, hog roast etc.

Beech house at the junction
BW yard at Ellesmere.  The foreman's office window is in the centre of this pic, he had a viewpoint across the whole of the site.

More major works going on around Tesco's.  We await to see what theyre building now.
