It's back! We really missed it on Newbury Wharf.

The newly restored crane has been returned and is looking great in its new look. The paint has been stripped off and the timber underneath treated. We think it looks good!

We can once again say our boat trips set off from under the crane on Newbury Wharf!

Did you know that Newbury Town bridge is the oldest bridge on the Kennet and Avon Canal? This lovely stone bridge was built between 1769 and 1772. Jubilee passes under it on her public trips.

You can enjoy a relaxing boat trip over the whole of bank holiday weekend including Monday. We have 3 trips on each day.

You can book ahead or just turn up - there may still be seats available.
