A walk up the locks

We aren't going to be doing the Stourbridge Sixteen locks - and I can't say I'm sorry. The plan was to do them, then the eight Delph locks, then turn round, do them all again, the four that took us onto the Stourbridge and head back to a nearby marina to leave the boat for a few days while we headed off to watch daughter Olivia graduate (with a FIRST!).Instead, we've found the mightily convenient Stourbridge Basin and saved ourselves 52 locks!
So I took a walk up this fascinating flight instead.
