Canal boatyards come in all shapes and sizes. Some, usually associated with modern marinas, are squeaky clean while other more traditional yards can be a little untidy. And then there's this place on the Coventry Canal just south of Marston Junction. Most of the moored boats are in a dilapidated condition and look like they've not moved in years - some are probably awaiting scrap. Apparently normal boatyard services are offered but it would take a brave boater to stop here. See Image for some history of the location.
