Wadenhoe to Yarwell Mill



We arrive at Fotheringay





We moored up by this mound where once stood the castle that Richard III was born
and Mary Queen of Scots was beheaded

An artist impression of how the castle once looked

We climb up....

....to enjoy the view

This Red Kite circled overhead!

We enjoyed a meal in the village of Fotheringay


Neil joined us for a couple of days

We make a lunch stop at Nassington...

Cheers!

We moor overnight at at Yarwell Mill
