Bugsworth Basin

We had a last minute arranged visit from our daughter Claire and my mum. It was a lovely surprise and was great to see them. The weather was fantastic today, we went to the Navigation Inn for lunch and it was even hot enough to eat outside. Bugsworth is a vast complex of wharves and thanks to the hard work of volunteers now holds Ancient Monument status. The area with its limekilns was handling 600 tons of limestone and lime daily in the 1880’s. It is a lovely place to stay for awhile, to relax and explore.
