Sileby Mill, Mountsorrel, Loughborough, Sileby village, Steam trains

A day off the boat. The river is very high, navigation is not happening, so I have done all the unpleasant jobs on the boat - changed the fuel filter, pumped out the bilge, cleaned the raw water filter, emptied the Elsan, vacuumed, washed up... so now I have the whole day free! I take a look at Mountsorrel Lock, with its very low bridge immediately below the lock. Then it's into Loughborough to have a look at the Great Central Railway, the longest double track steam heritage railway in the UK, running at speeds of up to 45mph from Loughborough to Leicester. On the way home I do some shopping at Aldi, and we drive through Sileby to have a look at the shops that are available to boaters staying in the boatyard just 15 mins walk away.

Please have a look at my other videos of cruising the cut.

Central Leicester to Sileby Mill on the River Soar

We leave the town centre and pass through areas of industrial decay and redevelopment, heading North on the River Soar. The two town centtre locks North of the moorings have broken paddle gear. We meet a huge group of children on various canoes and kayaks coming through the lock by the Natiional Space Centre, some of whom are desparate to get on YouTube, so I oblige, well we are in public and they are not identifiable by name, so where's the harm? Further north, the navigation becomes much more river like, with a steady current and lots of meanders. We meet some magnet fishers who have just removed an 80 Kilo safe from the lock layby, and some canoeists who demonstrate their skills doing rollovers and capsize rescue. Finally on to Sileby Mill, where we have a look around the lock and the weir.

Please have a look at my other videos of cruising the cut.

Places to see in ( Tenbury Wells - UK )

Places to see in ( Tenbury Wells - UK )

Tenbury Wells is a market town and civil parish in the north-western extremity of the Malvern Hills District of Worcestershire, England, which at the 2011 census had a population of 3,777. Tenbury Wells lies on the south bank of the River Teme, which forms the border between Shropshire and Worcestershire. It is in the north-west of the Malvern Hills District. The settlement of Burford in Shropshire lies on the north bank of the river.

From 1894 to 1974, it was a rural district, comprising itself and villages such as Stoke Bliss, Eastham and Rochford. From 1974 Tenbury was in the District of Leominster until it became part Malvern Hills District when Leominster District Council was taken over by Herefordshire Council in April 1998. The history of Tenbury Wells extends as far back as the Iron Age. The town is often thought of as the home to the Castle Tump, but this is now in Burford, Shropshire due to boundary changes. Though the Tump, possibly the remains of an early Norman motte and bailey castle, can be seen from the main road (A456) there are no visible remains of the castle that was constructed to defend and control the original River Teme crossing. It has also been described as ... the remains of an 11th century Norman Castle.

Tenbury was in the upper division of Doddingtree Hundred. Originally named Temettebury, the town was granted a Royal Charter to hold a market in 1249. Over time, the name changed to Tenbury, and then added the Wells following the discovery of mineral springs and wells in the town in the 1840s. The name of the railway station, which was on the now-defunct Tenbury & Bewdley Railway, was changed in 1912, in an attempt to publicise the mineral water being produced from the wells around the town.

One notable architectural feature in the town is the unique (often described as Chinese-Gothic) Pump Rooms, designed by James Cranston in the 1860s, to house baths where the mineral water was available. Other notable structures in Tenbury include the parish church of St Mary with a Norman tower, and a number of monuments. The church was essential rebuilt by Henry Woodyer between 1864 and 1865. The part-medieval bridge over the River Teme, linking Tenbury to Burford, Shropshire was rebuilt by Thomas Telford following flood damage in 1795. The Grade II-listed Eastham bridge dramatically collapsed into the River Teme on 24 May 2016. There were no reports of any casualties.

The Victorian Workhouse, designed by George Wilkinson, was used as the local Council Buildings from 1937 to the early 21st century and is currently being converted into residential housing. The Victorian infirmary behind the workhouse was demolished to create car parking for a new large Tesco Superstore, which opened on 27 April 2017. Tenbury was also known as the town in the orchard due to the large numbers of fruit orchards of apple trees and also pears, quince and plum trees, in the immediate vicinity of the town. This heritage is revisited every October during the Tenbury Applefest.

Trainspotting at the new Sileby station 1995

Trains at Sileby

Filmed Sunday 29th September 2019

Here is a small selection of trains passing Sileby station on the Midland Mainline.

This is the first time I've been to an East Midlands Railway station since the franchise change from Stagecoach to Abellio.

Sileby station reopened in 1994 as part of the Ivanhoe Line project to replace the service between Leicester & Loughborough which ceased in 2005. It is served by EMR's hourly Leicester to Lincoln service which does not run on Sundays.

The platforms of Syston, Sileby & Barrow Upon Soar are only long enough for a 2 Coach train (usually a 156 or 158) which can lead to problems during peak hours.
