Dudley canal legging it through the tunnel
On the Dudley canal boat legging it through the brick tunnel into nature. This is how they used to move the canal boats through the brick tunnels to keep them from getting damaged, they did this for hours in the darkness. The light into nature is beautiful 💚
That’s where the terms “wouldn’t touch them with a barge pole” and “legging it” comes from.
