User contributed information about Northcroft Lane Arm
If you are narrowboating and feel peckish for some hearty food, this is for you! I went out of season but there were some very nice people, especially those moored up on the canal. The organic honey beer (if they still do it) was heaven in a glass. This is very important if you are one of those hapless females who seem to be assigned to operating the locks whilst their better halfs steer the boat whilst quaffing the contents of a wine box!

The photo shown here is Newbury wharf downstream of Parkway Bridge the white railings of which can be seen to the right of the "Stone Building". Newbury is a big place and exists up and down stream of the wharf. The point 0.13 miles upstream of Parkway Bridge is Newbury Bridge.
