Welcome
to the Narrow Boat Trust website! It's designed
to be simple to navigate and informative on all
aspects of the Trust and working narrow boats.
The
Trust owns the 'Large Northwich'
motor boat, Nuneaton and
the 'Large Woolwich' butty, Brighton,
built as part of the massive expansion
programme of the Grand Union Canal
Carrying Company (G.U.C.C.Co.)
in the mid-1930s. (For more details
of the pair's history go to The
Boats)
They
are still used for carrying traditionally
as a pair whenever possible, crewed by
members.
We
give people the opportunity to see a pair
of narrow boats in full working trim,
and members to crew & display the
boats at Canal Festivals, the Waterways
system generally, and to look after &
maintain the boats.
