Narrow-boat leaving Tyrley Lock 4, Shropshire Union Canal, Staffordshire
Narrow-boat leaving Tyrley Lock 4, Shropshire Union Canal, Staffordshire
The flight of five locks at Tyrley are well maintained and pleasantly situated among agricultural land and woodland. Here, the narrow-boat "Marshwiggle" leaves Lock 4; Lock 5 is already open and waiting. Navigating the five locks should take between 40 minutes and an hour and a half, depending on queues and available crews.
