Blacksmith on the cut - our new wonderful weather vane!

While recently visiting the Shardlow Inland Port festival, we met Brian Greaves and his wife who travel the waterways selling items made on their blacksmiths forge boat called Bronte which he built himself over 30 years ago.

 We were really impressed with his work and commissioned a weather vane in the shape of 'Nugget' our Patterdale Terrier.  Brian was only too happy to accommodate our request.

 Brian set to work and then called us within 2 weeks to collect the completed vane.  We couldn't be happier with it, its great. 😀  

Brian has a website www.briangreaves.com  .  We also follow Heidi on her Narrowboat Pirate YouTube channel, which has a section on one of her vlogs about Brian which is really interesting to watch, click here to watch this  episode  Narrowboat Pirate Youtube
