Lapworth

This afternoon we took a walk through Lapworth, starting from Bridge No.65 on the Grand Union Canal, up the road crossing over the North Stratford Canal near Kingswood junction and past The Boot Inn.

It looks like Lapworth are going to have a huge bonfire on the 5th.

The footpath alongside the road took a detour through this wooded route.

We chatted to Keith and Lesley who live in this very pretty cottage alongside lock No.7 for well over an hour, they have lived there for 43 years.

We treated ourselves to a pint each of Lapworth Gold from the Byatt's Brewery at The Navigation, I think we deserved it.
