Additional information

There are signs here requesting boaters not to run their engines in this residential area.

There are more mooring rings between here and St Martin's Way Bridge No 123L, but it's quite a dark narrow cutting.

On the back of lock keepers pub /restaurant it’s a lovely spot, very close to the city centre, a few undesirables hang out there but never a problem.
