Cosgrove

With today being one of those glorious bright sunny and very cold winter's days, we went for a walk along the Ouse Valley towards Cosgrove and then back across the Iron Trunk. With temperatures hovering around 2 °C we were luckily the wind wan't strong otherwise the wind chill would have been very high. Later on this week we may get snow.

Same Spot 2011

We walked across the fields from the River Ouse to the Buckingham Arm where the Buckingham Canal Society are doing a great job at restoration. A section of the arm that extends towards Old Stratford is now in water and they are in the middle of rebuilding Bridge 1.

A Sunny Day at the Junction

The Iron Trunk looked spectacular in the winter sun. The repainting and refurbishment a few years ago makes it look smart. I noticed the aqueduct was dripping a little in places.
