The view this morning. Not moving anywhere, just staying on the mooring. Had a walk this morning along one of the old pack horse trails that abound in the valley. Corned dog hash for lunch, settled down to read Slow Boat Through Pennine Waters by the stove.

I did 2 hours this morning to get from Maghull back to Burscough....probably the coldest most miserable trip ive done in 25 years...3 changes of clothes in that time!!

What is the bit with the grassy basin please? That's the now defunct dry dock, situated right on the junction with Burscough L & L, don't think its been used since the '80's, apparently it leaks into the terraced cottages!
Why CRT don't spend a few hundred quid weed killering and developing it into an interesting view is beyond me, altho they are currently redoing the towpath in 'crush n run' all the way from Burscough centre to Wheat Lane bridge! :-)
Ill post a few better pics tomorrow of the dock and surrounding area!
