    Tips

    A fun little part of the ride, or walk for the kid's.... or for big kids like myself! Before barges had motor's, the people in the barge would have to lie on their backs and 'walk' along the roof of the tunnel (referred to as Legging) to travel 176 yards to the other side where they would then hook up to their Shire horse to carry on pulling them. They must have felt the burn in their legs!
