Keeping with the reflection theme, another shot from along the canal.

Age takes its toll.

An old boat dock on the canal nr Leek, i'm sure i've got pictures of this taken years ago when it was in much better condition.

Lock Keepers cottage

Another Keepers cottage, this one on the canal out side Denford.

The Don Whillans Hut

Rockhall Cottage was built in 1862 as the gamekeepers cottage for the Roaches area of the Swythamley Estate. In 1990 the derelict and primitive Rockhall Cottage became vacant as the Peak Park Board re-housed the self-styled and legendary ‘King of the Roaches’ Doug Moller, the Peak Park Board then approached the B.M.C. to convert the cottage into a climbing hut.

Denford nr Leek

Looking over Denford from the canal. The Hollybush pub is to the left of the row of terrace houses.

Snow on the canal

A clear out of all my snowy images now that spring is almost here, this one was taken down on the canal not far from home.
