The River Trent is over the canal bridge on your right. Parking for this stretch of the River Trent is opposite the garage, and over the canal bridge. Park sensibly so any vehicles can get past.
Unfortunately at the time of going to press, Mr Vernon the owner of the stretch of the Trent, has had to put locks on all of his gates because of his valuable livestock. This means that members will have to climb carefully over his gate to get to the river. The stretch is for two fields down and meanders on for several hundred metres.
The stretch ends at Hoo Mill Bridge Lane, you can also access the river by coming down this lane which is further down the (A51) this is the next lane on the right after Ed Wheeltman's Garage. This means that you need to drive along the lane, over the canal bridge and down the one track lane between the fields to the river bridge at Hoo Mill.
If you are challenged by the owner of the lock keepers cottage which is just over the canal bridge on your right, we have been advised that you refer him to Mr Vernon. As always please park considerately.
