Hawkesbury to Atherstone flight

A much better morning weatherwise, no chilling wind, sunny periods, Got down to 2 shirts and a waistcoat by the time we got to the Atherstone flight. We had hoped to moor at the top of the locks, but no room, so we carried on down through lock 5 and the 7 day moorings above lock 6. Looking closely at the map, we could actually be closer to the High Street from here than from the top of the locks, and a more pleasant spot to moor, more countryfied rather than industrial and urban.
