Usual canal launch, off the side and hope for the best. Plenty of mooring points at this section.

Paddling Information

Paddle southerly for more scenic route, but it's a nice trip either way. Just over half a mile northerly gets you to the Waterwitch pub, which is a nice stop for a pint right on the canal.
