From Froghall Basin

From Willow Cruises mooring, we will travel through Lock no. 1 at Froghall Basin, on the Uttoxeter canal.  We will take a left turn onto the Caldon canal and cruise under the very low Froghall tunnel.  After this, we continue our journey to Lock no. 17, Flint Mill Lock, also known Wetley Lock, this is the last lock on the Caldon canal.  Immediately after the lock is the winding hole where Paul, our skipper will turn 'Lurcher' around before heading back into the lock ready for the return journey back to Froghall Basin and the only stretch of the Uttoxeter canal that remains accessible by boat.

The cruise duration cruise is 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 hours.
