Stafford Boat Club Rally
A good time was had by all at the Stafford Boat Club Rally, which is held every two years. All proceeds went to the Riversway Link, a project to open up the waterway into the middle of Stafford.

Stafford Boat Club
The well maintained grounds at Stafford Boat Club can be seen in all their glory from this viewpoint. The old locks from up the canal were made into a floodlit feature by the members of the club.

Stafford Boat Club's marina
This is the marina of the Stafford Boat Club, seen from the new bridge over the marina entrance. Originally it was the short Hazlestrine Arm of the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal, which had been used to carry clay to, and bricks from the former Hazlestrine Brickworks.
The boat club acquired the site in 1968, and have made a brilliant job of transforming the whole area as a private marina with beautifully landscaped grounds, and club house.
Visiting crews are welcomed to the club (especially if supporting the bar!) but it is advisable to contact them first to check whether mooring is available by their field. There is no access from the towpath side.

Traffic jam on the canal!
Over 80 boats attended the Bi-annual Rally at Stafford Boat Club. Somehow, all of them found a parking space!

Landscaped grounds at Stafford Boat Club
Decorative lock gates high and dry in the very attractive grounds by the marina at the south end of the Wildwood Estate near Stafford. Apparently visiting crews on the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal are welcomed in the bar to enjoy Marston's beers, including Pedigree. I must try it, for there is a dearth of decent pubs on the canal here.

Hazlestrine Arm
The Hazlestrine Arm of the Staffs & Worcs Canal was built to serve a brickworks that first opened in the mid-19th century. The brickworks was no longer operational after the Second World War but the site continued to be used as a tip - it is not therefore clear when the last working boat used the arm. It has however been restored and is now used by the Stafford Boat Club for moorings. See Image taken in 2015; some of the same boats can be seen.
