Excellent video. Very interesting to see inside the tunnel. I used to live in sundorne & spent many Happy hours as a boy playing down by the old canal. It would be so good to see it fully restored & reinstated back on the main network👍.

Super video, didn’t know this canal existed. Really interesting to find out more about it.

Fascinating. I've lived by the Shroppie at Audlem for 15 years, but knew little about this part of it, except that I published the book "Shropshire Union Fly-Boats, The Jack Roberts Story", which talks about boating along the canal well over 100 years ago. It's great to actually see what Jack described. Looking forward to the next instalment!
