The Cafe at the top
But when we were ready to go down there was no other boat to join us. Two boats eventually started down but by then we were three locks down. It was quite a struggle with these huge double locks so we usually only used the paddle and gate on one side.

The boats and crew soon caught us up and started to help us. It took us four hours to get to the bottom the twenty one locks. We found a mooring near the Satisford Arm. Thankfully all done during a dry day.
The Saltisford Canal Centre is much improved with new facilities but almost full of boats. Beyond our mooring the canal edge is all concrete with nothing to tie to if you want to stop.
