A fisherman raises his long rod to allow the narrowboat to pass. The cows merely look on. There are two people on the boat, and the bicycle would allow one to ride ahead along the towpath to prepare the lock – but they are in no hurry today. The fender at the front is there to protect both the vessel and the locks it passes through. Image Follow this narrowboat: Image Next: Image See also: Image
