Marple Aqueduct to New Mills. Narrowboat Journey on the Peak Forest Canal - Ep. 71

In the first of three Peak Forest Canal vlogs, we travel from Marple Aqueduct to New Mills - Narrowboat Adventures on the Peak Forest Canal as we explore Britain by Narrowboat.
In this episode we begin our journey by Benjamin Outram's towering Marple Aqueduct, standing in the shadow of the even taller railway viaduct. We climb the sixteen locks of the Marple flight before heading down the Upper Peak Forest Canal towards New Mills.
Colin explores the incredible local landmarks like the Millennium Walkway and Torrs Hydro in New Mills, and seeks out some peace and quiet walking along the Goyt Way. He also causes mayhem at Matlow's Swizzle Factory and ends the day with a sugar rush!
Catch-up on every vlog, from the beginning, in order, as we explore Britain by Narrowboat:

Another great video guys. You were in my neck of the woods, glad you loved our lovely scenery 😍. You pronounced the river Goyt's name correctly 👍. Now pleased to say I'm part of the Patreon gang 😊. X

Hi Geoff. Thank you so much for being a Patreon. People don’t realise how much it helps in getting these episodes done. So glad we got Goyt right 🤣🤣 You live in a beautiful area, it was a privilege to spend a few weeks here...... We’ll definitely be back ❤️❤️

Hi, Phillip 👋 Really sorry to hear of you losing your wife. Really pleased we made you smile. Thank you! x

Of course xx strength and beauty to couples everywhere. Also to those who are still seeking.

I used to stay at my Aunt's and uncles on Overdale Road, New Mills at the weekends and school holidays. I used to wake up to the smell of the Swizzels factory back in the 1970's, every kids dream, like you said. But at the bottom of Overdale Road, New Mills, is the canal. I used to while away the hours watching boats, barges and other craft pass by. Doing the odd drawing and doodles. My uncles worked for British Rail and used to take me with him to a signal box he worked in, it was next to a level crossing not to gar from his house. I also used to stay there when it coincided with steam trains going by. My first ever time seeing a steam train was, "Leander 5690" Thanks for bringing those great childhood memories and times flooding back to me 👍😎👍

[@FoxesAfloat]

Wow! Fabulous memories. My kind of childhood 👍🏻

[@dawnmarybeaumont7237]

I am mightily impressed by all your knowledge, Colin 😳 I can tell you’re not reading. I’m sure that filming and editing and planning and narrating has its own stresses but I’m enjoying the heck out of your craftsmanship. Don’t freak out - no pressure - but, dude, your narrowboat vlogs are second to none. I’m enjoying all the assorted narrowboat channels - they all have their own special flavor. But, yikes... Foxes Afloat is just brilliant.

Thank you! We'll try 👍🏻

I admit I still kind of got to wrap my head around these "bridges of water up above", these aqueducts. I mean, we have bridges--road and foot bridges--above to cross water. But "water bridge" above water?! Amazing! Not to mention "water bridge! above roads?! :D :D :D And beautiful architecture, too! Might I mention, your drone shots do them justice!

The drone footage of the 2 bridges near the start was simply awesome guys !! And to get footage of "Tornado" crossing was a real bonus. I'd always thought the L&L was the UK's prettiest canal but having seem some of the PF I might have to change my mind !! Safe travels as always chaps.

The walkway bridge and the Archimedes reverse screw were great , we have some wonderful sites in our country and we should celebrate them a lot more than we do . Can I just say if you were picking knickers out of the canal that had been thrown at you from behind they must have been wrapped in a house brick , and as for that smash and grab raid at the sweet factory you will be giving the kiddies ideas 😁 . Great vlog as usual take care lads .

Possibly your most stunning video yet! You made it look amazing in sunshine and the autumnal misty shots were so evocative. The drone work on the Goyt Aqueduct was brilliant and it was nice to hear that you two still have Stylophones from the 70s to do your own background music. have you given Dylan a perm?

What a stunning looking place, even the misty bits were beautiful. Another cracking episode guys, you're setting the bar really high with these, top job.

Fantastic aerial photography! The views of the arched bridges & aquaeducts was incredible! 👀 Candy 🍭. Safe travels gentlemen!

Thanks, Jane. 👍🏻

Over a decade ago there was couple taking video tape of their journeys on the canals. Their videos are still on KZbin, under "Pig and Pineapple ". They set up a camera looking down that junction Colin backed down. Funny to watch, people banging their boats into the walls. Here Colin just backs in easy peasy...lol

[@FoxesAfloat]

Will check that out 👍

[@SqeakyToy]

Great episode! Fantastic vistas from the drone shots! Dillon! You're going to give yourself diabetes!

[@FoxesAfloat]

It took me two days to come down 😂

[@travish3130]

You two crack me up! Love the videos.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Haha! Thanks, Travis 👍🏻😂

[@willowgrove631]

Best video yet boys! Absolutely loved seeing the drone footage and all the scenery I remember from when I lived in Marple Bridge years ago! Thank you so much ❤️ (especially loved the 'Tigger' moments from Colin after eating all those sweeties 🤣)x

[@FoxesAfloat]

Haha! It took me two days to calm down 😂

[@kathleenstraube5356]

I’m soooo impressed with GB.! After your videos I always go to Google Earth and get to street level to have a look around. If we were independently wealthy I think my husband and I would kiss America goodbye and .....return to our ancient mother land. ❤️ to you both!

[@FoxesAfloat]

Wow! Thanks, Kathleen 💜👍🏻

[@m1cxf]

Really enjoyed this vlog, full of giggles especially the opportunistic sweetie factory raid and some excellent footage of the scenery.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Haha! They weren't laughing 😂

[@gameingguesty7991]

Another excellent video guys loved the start with the steam train air shots. You guys dont need to go the gym with all them locks good work out looking forward to next one enjoy your weekend 👍

[@FoxesAfloat]

We have some stunning scenery in this country, many thanks for sharing it. By the way Dillon is a darling x

[@FoxesAfloat]

Haha! Everybody loves Dillon ❤️

[@SarahGreen523]

lol Collin did a runner into the candy factory! And he wouldn't share with Shaun! Love it!

[@FoxesAfloat]

Haha! I'm barred for life 🏆

[@richardpettet9996]

Great film of the area. Trains as well. Like the drone shots.

[@FoxesAfloat]

Cheers, Richard! 👍🏻

How I love this place. Born 2 miles away 70 years ago I still cycle the canal to Romiley and new Mills and it's a delight every time unless i get a puncture (lots of thorn bushes shed their thorns on the towpath!).

[@srqlisa7881]

I didn't know England had forest, beautiful I hope it never changes. Great drone footage. I grew up watching Bonanaz and you can still watch the series, good job on the details all correct. :) peace

[@FoxesAfloat]

Thank you! xx

[@Rel1369]

I think the misty part of the vlog was some of the most awesome footage you have shown so far. The area suited the mistyness and made it look beautifully spooky.

[@MegaSnow121]

That's what I thought, too. Magical beauty with the fog.

[@FoxesAfloat]

It was quite calming, but bloody cold 🥶

[@FoxesAfloat]

I can't wait for the really foggy mornings, or even better, SNOW! ⛄️

[@projectmgrnj]

That drone footage of you crossing the Marple Aqueduct - amazing stuff

[@FoxesAfloat]

Thanks, Pete 👍🏻
