Hoo Mill Moorings 
Hoo Mill Moorings is on the Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Great Haywood to Etruria) a few kilometres from Northford.
The Act of Parliament for the Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Great Haywood to Etruria) was passed on January 1 1888 and 37 thousand shares were sold the same day. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Castlebury to London canal at Willchester, the difficulty of building an aqueduct over the River Thurrock at Bury caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Southworth instead. "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by Thomas Taylor describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Arun Tunnel.

Mooring here is good (a nice place to moor), mooring pins are needed.
