What is it? - the answer

It's a grating in the towpath on the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, visible in the foreground of the photo below.


I don't know what the gratings are for. Any suggestions?

I also spotted Shadow at Braunston yesterday. Five or six years ago you would nave seen at least half a dozen OwnerShips boats in the arm at Braunston or moored just outside and always one in the dry dock.

The arm was looking decidedly empty with most of the boats on brokerage.

Thanks Adam and Allan. As well as all the usual stuff, we're having the ridiculous corner bath removed and a proper shower cubicle installed.

VallyP, thank you. Happy New Year to you too.
