one of the ugliest boats ever built, if only he had bought 10 fair battens

I'm watching 3.17 exploring gallows wharf on my TV, as I do all of them. Will you be doing updates on progress or completions of the places in future or recent completion or construction? Love what you do. I never have been in England, but plan on it in the future. Compliments to your music as well.

This is absolutely fabulous detective work Andy! Thank you so much for this. I’ve been looking for the aqueduct where my dad took me fishing as a boy, and I found where it was at Kinnersley, but I find it hard to understand where all the embankment has gone? Walking Kinnersley Drive to the end, at Donnington Drive, it’s hard to think that the lane was passable by car, and led under the canal. Extremely odd. You mentioned other photographs, I’d like to discover more about the area. You may know about the two sets of semi circular sections of cobbles, set into the road at Kinnersley and Preston. Are these where the canal crossed the road perhaps? In the meantime, my thanks for all you’ve done! Regards, Les Curtis

I was there have photos to prove it…….

The office blocks on Gt Charles St have car parks at the rear and in the first car park (Scottish Life House car park) you can find the remains of a canal bridge which still looks as if it supports the road above. There a few other traces if I remember correctly as you progress towards Livery Street. The video did not mention the breach that occurred at the end of the Newhall Branch. A narrow boat was carried down the hill of what is now Gr Charles St.

Fascinating video especially as I used to play all over there when I was a kid in 1970s!!!! Big mistake though is Bentley Bridge shopping centre was not built/opened till around 2000, so your 20 years out. My friends & I were still going over there when they started to build it around 1996/97.

As a near neighbour from by The Gt Western Street Wednesbury,have happy memories of Ocker bonk. Because of my name ,a couple of my mates from Holyhead Rd school used to call me Ocker Bonk.lovely happy memories 😂

Excellent. I was given the same model around the same time. Unfortunately, I spilt the burning meths and set the carpet on fire and was frightened to use it again. Hence, mint condition! Just enjoying it fully all these years later!

The shropshire Arms pub got its nickname from the wrought iron ingots cast across the canal directly opposite the pub,as these ingots had a blue tint to them and were known as blue pig iron

The audio goes really quiet in places

It's only when you've given up' boating that you realise how much of the canal system that you've not cruised ! (I mean the still navigal parts. Suc is life. Andy, your flims - especially whe viewed in full screen soften the blow slightly... Thus very many thanks!

Good to see this great old toy working and not lost and forgotten! I love mine as does my young son. I remember my father enthusing me with this when I was a child too. An expensive toy but well worth the expense at the time I guess he thought. I fully agree. Here is one of mine in action! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bdd2lqh7y-C1eGQ.html

As always a great video, this section is now in use and Schoolhouse Bridge is complete. Must be time for a return and a new video of the next section to Llanymynech nudge nudge! I still do get what is left to do beyond a lot of dredging as it appears to only be a mile or so to the in water section

Spent many hours in the old canal tunnel at Smiths Crescent while skiving lessons at John Hunt School.

It angers me that the hole is open for animals or children or anyone to possibly fall and end up starving or dehydration to death what health and safety fail. I watch Martin Zero and he jokes a if you believe that "I've got a jam Butty to sell you" like here with as in comparison using a bridge. I'm in USA. Can you explain to me what humor is going on with that saying?

Fascinating.

Very interesting Andy as my parents lived in Telford for many years. Not nitpicking but when they moved into Wrockwardine Wood in the 1970s, their neighbours soon told them it was pronounced Rockadyne!

Thanks Andy. Another great and informative vlog, plus the fact if you look hard enough you can still find relics of the canal...

Sir you are a real trooper going through all that wet and rain and such to bring us really interesting information thank you so much from Bakersfield California USA

I certainly did enjoy it. Thanks

Another great episode,really enjoying this series Andy .Waiting patiently for Blists Hill 😊

My childhood playground. Many hours spent making dens and catching stickleback in the shallow water of the filled in locks shown on here. I now have a very keen interest in the history of local canals so thank you for this video...I will now watch the whole series :)😊

Hi Andy. Been watching your videos for several years now. They are amazing and I imagine they are alot of work to create. I wonder if your videos are being archived in a safe place, I mean other than on KZfaq?

Super! Another great episode of Canal Hunter.. Built remains after 200 years, that's fantastic Andy.. you running into the land owner was quite a bit of luck.. the tunnel you dropped down into looked sketchy but very interesting! I love this stuff!!! Cheers from Missouri USA!

Nice video but full of bad practice. Mamods instructions required that excess meths was poored from the burner, you actually spilt some. The chimney is diecast and not appropriate to solder, well done for not melting it. The usual solution is epoxy. Its great to see you having such fun and even involving the grandkids too.

Nice one again Andy

Came here from dull men’s club and I’m glad I did. Very informative and interesting

Brill. Looking forward to listening to you visiting Coalbrookdale. Plenty of incline evidence to see and tunnels and shafts!

Another very enjoyable instalment of Telford's old tub boat canals, this has been a great series, the drone footage along the way has been great to watch and gives a modern understanding of the line of the canals, thank you for your efforts, highly appreciated!

Super informative video Andy, thank you

I do like how you find bits and pieces in the end of your story.. the Incline story is quite interesting.. Thanks Andy! Cheers..

Very interesting Andy ,will you be including the incline plane at Coalport 🤔

The kids & have I have literally just done this last few weeks finding last bits of our explore of entire Newport to Shrewsbury line. We have just branches to blists hill & Ketley canal. The line of canal along pitchcroft canal past 4 old locks actually doesn't follow hedge but along a bit then through fields by river. The pitchcroft lane Bridge in a garden is the real high light

Absolutely brilliant as always

As far as I'm aware "No public right of way" doesn't mean that you can't walk along a route, it means that it isn't a protected route from being built on or fenced off etc.

Thank You Andy .This was a most enjoyable Video .The pictures are first class . How time has changed this area of the midlands 👍😀

Very interesting, quite odd and sad to see the road under the bridge
