Holidaying on the canals in the late 1920s was confined mainly to a few eccentrics and enthusiasts, even though much of the canal system was still accessible and operational at that time.

Undeterred, Desmond Stoker and his father enjoyed long trips on these underappreciated waterways – trips that often extended well over 200 miles and lasted several weeks.
Desmond recorded their exploits on three of these trips, in 1928, 1929 and 1930.
Desmond’s son Simon has now brought the material to the wider public.
