2nd March 2020 – Branston

We moved along from Burton to one of it’s loveliest suburbs called Branston (where the pickle gets its name). Branston has some old gravel pits which were minded out years ago and which have since been filled with water and turned into some beautiful lakes full of wildlife. We have walked around the main lake many times during our stay at the marina and it is one of our favourite places!
So the next thing on our agenda is to get through the river section at Alrewas, which is currently in flood, so we are hoping that we don’t get any rain in the next few days – fingers crossed!
