by BillPerry · Published 29 March 2017 · Updated 27 November 2022

Countrywide Cruisers at Brewood on the Shroppie is only half a day cruise from Hatherton and are friendly and welcoming.

A narrow slipway but is an easy reverse, with room to turn at the top. Normally has room to store car and trailer. It is also has easy links to the M5/M6 but watch which way you plan to go through the village of Brewood, as some of the streets are narrow and can be an “interesting” driving experience!! Water, toilets and loo dump are available on site.

Cost approx £80 slipping in and out and car and trailer storage as reported by Ivan Cane in November 2022

Ivan also gave a more detailed explanation on how to get to the slipway through the town. As follows:

Hints – From the A5, use Claygates Lane into Four Ashes Road, onto Deansfield Road. Then, when Deansgate Road turns right, do not go straight onto Vicarage road into Brewood Village, but also turn right into Deansgate (housing estate), turn left at crossroads into Stafford Street, and right at end into Bargate Street and hence to Canal. This avoids difficult blind corners and congested village streets in the centre of Brewood. Back in from the storage area – not over weighbridge.
