The moorings here are all on the offside. The 48 hr moorings are on some 240 ft of staging, with a single 24 hour mooring between the winding hole and the adjacent water points. Both give access to a good path on the north side of the canal which leads to the Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre, 1 km away. This can be extended to a 4km circular walk by following the trail to Shenton Station and then turning south down the path along the former railway, including over 'Former Railway Bridge 34A' and back along the towpath. Mobile internet here is very poor.
