This charming village has an old but very large church, mostly unchanged from the 14th century. Certainly, there are cosmetic changes, and some restoration work, but the church hasn&#8217;t been added to since being built. Very interesting. I rang there for services, but only on the back 6 of their 8 as there were only six ringers present. We enjoyed a Sunday carvery lunch, then onto the Soar River again as we made our way through the junction with the Trent River. The looming cooling towers of a massive power station certainly dominate the landscape. We crossed the wide Trent, and entered the Erewash Canal at Trent Lock. This is also a wide canal, but VERY low bridges have offered me a chance to replace my aging chimney. We will spend the night moored along the towpath in as quiet an area as possible (this canal is quite urban, but not dirty). Frost overnight, but sunshine and light winds, so cruising is still wonderful. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS201.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1012\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS201.jpg\" alt=\"T&amp;S201\" width=\"5184\" height=\"3456\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS201.jpg 5184w, http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS201-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS201-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 5184px) 100vw, 5184px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1013\" style=\"width: 5194px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS202.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1013\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1013\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS202.jpg\" alt=\"Soar River at Kegworth\" width=\"5184\" height=\"3456\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS202.jpg 5184w, http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS202-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS202-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 5184px) 100vw, 5184px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1013\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Soar River at Kegworth<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_1014\" style=\"width: 5194px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS203.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1014\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1014\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS203.jpg\" alt=\"Erewash Canal: former industrial structures now used again for modern purposes\" width=\"5184\" height=\"3456\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS203.jpg 5184w, http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS203-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.mortimer.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/TS203-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 5184px) 100vw, 5184px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1014\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Erewash Canal: former industrial structures now used again for modern purposes<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We spent last night at the deep lock at Kegworth.
