33 miles in length, The Grantham Canal runs from its junction with the River Trent in Nottingham, to Grantham at Earle's Field Lane. Its route takes it near the villages of Cotgrave, Cropwell Butler and Cropwell Bishop, before meandering through Kinoulton, Hickling, Harby, Plungar and Redmile in the Vale of Belvoir.
Monday 4th June, 33 miles
Jogging over Trent Bridge, Nottingham
Through the suburbs
Overhanging
There once was an ugly duckling
Required reading
Green algae
Flat, fast, mile-marked...
Under bridges
Where's the water gone?
Lush
Landscape
Island
Herd
Old industry
Flying the flag
Time to refuel
Grassy tracks
Reeds
Bullrushes
Tardis
Belvoir Castle
Clearing skies
Lock
Lock gates at Woolsthorpe
Viking Way bridge crossing
Coming to an end.
