Great Haywood Day 2

We set off from our mooring opposite Shugborough Hall around 11 am and passed through Haywood Lock before turning onto the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal at Haywood Junction.  Immediately after the junction I had to back into the basin in order to pump out the toilet.

In the end there wasn't much that needed pumping out but we took advantage of being able to empty the cassette toilet, empty the bins and fill up with water at the same time.

After everything that needed emptying was empty, I pulled right out of the basin and backed through the junction bridge to head back down the Trent and Mersey, mooring slightly above the lock.
