Wombourne To Compton
In the morning we only went as far as Wightwick bridge on the outskirts of Wolverhampton so that we could visit Whightwick Manor.
On the way the Manor we stopped for a pint at the Mermaid Inn. They were fully booked for lunch so we had lunch there in the old stables at the Manor, which are now part of the new and bigger cafe. After that we went round the house then round the gardens. There was quite a bit more to see inside the house than last year, however the gardens weren't as good, as apart from the Rhodedenrons there weren't as many plants in flower.

After that we moved on through the next 2 locks to Compton bridge for the night. We walked up the hill to the Westacres, an Ember Inn, where we ate. After that we went to the Swan.
