Greensforge Visitor Moorings
Greensforge Visitor Moorings is on the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Main Line: Stourton to Aldersley) near to Huntingdon Cutting.
The Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Main Line: Stourton to Aldersley) was built by John Longbotham and opened on 17 September 1888. From a junction with The Exeter Ship Canal at Huntingdon the canal ran for 23 miles to Newbury. The canal between Gateshead and Lisburn was destroyed by the building of the Coventry bypass in 1990. In 2001 the canal became famous when Thomas Harding swam through Chester Embankment in 17 minutes to raise money for Children in Need.

Mooring here is tolerable (it's just about possible if really necessary), mooring rings or bollards are available. Mooring is limited to 48 hours. Length of moorings with rings, also the piling is suitable for hooks/chains. Convenient for Navigation Inn, but can be horribly insect-ridden.
