'Sorry for the inconvenience' notices everywhere but now no narrowboat friendly moorings riverside.<br />As for Gloucester, we will be going that way this summer so your advice is gladly noted, thank you.<br />LesleyNb Yarwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14806115768980012184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3714859249105095629.post-73537418731894493812011-05-22T11:32:57.080+01:002011-05-22T11:32:57.080+01:00Meant to say - are you going all the way to Glouce...Meant to say - are you going all the way to Gloucester? If so, best basin moorings are on the wall immediately left as you come out of Gloucester Lock, if you can get on there. The pontoons are just too short to tie onto properly if you are more than 50 ft, and it's impossible to stop the back end swinging about. Other than that, on the wall on the right as you come out of the lock. The wall is a bit high there, but you can get shore power. Failing that, go on under the next bridge, and right after the bridge on the left is a length of mooring pontoon. We usually stop there - you're in the town but kind of out of the way.debbiehttp://www.nbhumdinger.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3714859249105095629.post-72619012623030209372011-05-22T11:27:42.805+01:002011-05-22T11:27:42.805+01:00The best place to stop on Worcester's Visitor ...The best place to stop on Worcester's Visitor moorings is up by the racecourse - the side has wood set into it which is a bit gentler on your paintwork,<br /><br />If you stop on the way back, DON'T moor anywhere near the bridges - the locals are a bit unfriendly and will throw stones/bricks at you, as we found to our cost. Up by the racecourse is fine though.Debbiehttp://www.nbhumdinger.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
