Northern Reaches and Views of Wales
For the final programme in the series we joined Fred for the last part of his watery odyssey on the Northern Reaches of the "Lanky" - Lancaster Canal. From Tewitfield, journeying into the largely unexplored Northern Reaches, this stretch of water is un-navigable by narrow boat, so Fred joins Stephen Appleby from the Kendal Civic Society on his electric boat to navigate the final miles.
