Summary
edit
| Description |
English: Stewponey Lock and Wharf, Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal. Stewponey Lock changes the water level by ten feet (3.05 metres).
The S & W Canal Society has this to say regarding the name of the area: "The origin of the name Stewponey has never been accurately explained. Suggestions include a corruption of Estepona, referring to an early connection with the Spanish town of the same name, and stewpons which were medieval ponds used by monks for keeping carp as a food supply." A nice contrast with John's March image 744152 ; I've got more green but he's got more blue. |
