The National Transport Trust Red Wheel at Tardebigge Top Lock (Worcestershire) commemorates the site of Britain's longest lock flight. Located on the Worcester & Birmingham Canal, the top lock is an engineering landmark that replaced an 1815 experimental vertical boat lift, making it unusually deep. History & Significance The Vertical Boat Lift: Before the traditional lock was built, inventor John Woodhouse installed an experimental vertical boat lift at his own expense. A 64-ton wooden chamber lifted boats an impressive 11 feet using a windlass. The Shift to Locks: While the lift successfully raised 110 boats in 12 hours, it proved too fragile for permanent use. In 1815, it was replaced by the deep conventional lock we see today. The Red Wheel Plaque: Awarded by the National Transport Trust, the Red Wheel acts as the transport equivalent of a blue plaque, recognizing sites of profound historical and engineering importance. The Tardebigge Flight The Longest in the UK: The Tardebigge Flight consists of 30 narrow locks spread across 2.25 miles, raising or lowering boats by 67 metres (220 feet). Navigation: Transiting the whole flight typically takes narrowboat enthusiasts about 4 to 5.5 hours.

Beautiful medieval bridge over river Avon. Incredibly well preserved given its age.

The biggest Cotswold outlier, just short of a thousand feet high with magnificent views across the Avon and Severn valleys.

A quite impressive rock formation that really does look like an elephant lying down.

The old bridge is picturesque, and its also a great place to while away an hour or two by the river.
