River Soar near Birstall in Leicestershire
The River Soar is seen here, looking downstream about half a mile north of Birstall Lock. The river flows by and through the extensive Watermead Country Park for about four miles north of Leicester. There are many large lakes which are former gravel pits. For some sections, the navigation reverts to canalised status, part of the Grand Union Canal (Leicester Section). https://www.leicscountryparks.org.uk/watermead-visitor-information/

Thousands of yards of gas mains are being replaced around Birstall for some weeks now, and though inconvenient, this essential work has been carried out quite efficiently without major problems to residents. Motorists are even learning to give way to each other!
