This church stands in the tiny village of Twyford on the banks of the River Trent near Willington. Until the 1960s there was a ferry across the river here. The approach road is often flooded in winter. Always OPEN. This is a Grade One listed building. I am going to photograph everyone of the Grade One listed buildings in South Derbyshire over the next few months. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twyford,_Derbyshire

Entrance to new marina near Willington, Derbyshire Trent and Mersey Canal. This is so new that the Google maps satellite images still only shows it as a flooded former pit detached from the canal. It is Mercia Marina, opened in 2008.

The staff was fab and checking in was great.
