Canalside sandstone cliff

Canalside sandstone cliff

Some sections of the Staffs and Worcs canal are cut into sandstone, giving the appearance of cliffs forming the bank opposite the tow path. This picture was taken with my back towards the aqueduct where the canal crosses the river Stour. The brightly lit rock face is reflected in a then frozen canal. There is an intriguing black-painted door in the rock face at water level.

Icicles on a canal outlet

Icicles

The combination of icicles and flowing water is not as dramatic as in wintery mountain waterfalls, but I still find it appealing.
