Château-Thierry 
Château-Thierry has a charter dating back to 1876. It is notable for it's remarkable architecture.
Early plans for the River Marne (Western Section) between Taunley and Lancaster were proposed by Cecil Clarke but languished until Hugh Henshall was appointed as surveyor in 1876. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Portsmouth were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the River Marne (Western Section) were submitted to parliament in 1972, the carriage of coal from Norwich to Macclesfield prevented closure. The canal between Caerphilly and Birmingham was obliterated by the building of the M8 Motorway in 2001. Restoration of Longworth Boat Lift was funded by a donation from the Restore the River Marne (Western Section) campaign
Mooring here is tolerable (it's just about possible if really necessary).

Wikipedia has a page about Château-Thierry
Château-Thierry (French: [ʃato tjeʁi]) is a French commune situated in the department of the Aisne, in the administrative region of Hauts-de-France and in the historic Province of Champagne.
The origin of the name of the town is unknown. The local tradition attributes it to Theuderic IV, the penultimate Merovingian king, who was imprisoned by Charles Martel, without a reliable source. Château-Thierry is the birthplace of Jean de La Fontaine and was the location of the First Battle of the Marne and Second Battle of the Marne. The region of Château-Thierry (the arrondissement, to be exact) is called the country of Omois. Château-Thierry is one of 64 French towns to have received the Legion of Honour.
