General
Description - Its about 7 miles & 4 Locks to the Hollybush at Denford or turn round when it suits you for a return to the start. Some locks, whilst not exactly staircases, come close together and can best be portaged with aid of a canoe trolley. If you are part of a group it may be worth going through the locks with the aid of a windlass and knowledge of the lock operation but its generally faster and easier to portage.
