Geocache Description:

A traditional cache along the picturesque Stroud Water Navigation. 

This is a series of initially seven caches placed along the Stroud Water Navigation. The Stroud Water Navigation is the first part of the Canal link between the Severn and the Thames. It originally brought boats from the Severn to Stroud. Currently the canals are undergoing restoration and are becoming a very pleasant recreation route. These caches have been placed with the kind permission of the Cotswold Canals Trust. I have opted not to number the caches for the good reason that I may add more in between as restoration takes place and also there are existing caches between some of mine.

Skew Bridge
The Midland Railway once ran across this cast iron bridge on its way to Stroud. Today there is a cycle path that crosses it on wihich you can cycle all the way into Nailsworth, or take the branch at Dudbridge into Storud. Just beyond the old railway bridge is Haywards bridge, a new bridge that carries the Ebley Bypass.
