Thornberry is a much travelled boat owned by a stalwart of the inland waterways movement, now sadly passed away. The shell and superstructure is by Les Allen, much respected builders in Oldbury. The interior was fitted out by the late Peter Millward. The layout is very much traditional with a good size saloon at the front with a Kabola diesel stove with back boiler. There are loose chairs, gateleg table and a built in dresser.The galley has a good number of floor units, wall cupboard, Vanette cooker and Electrolux 3 way fridge. Off corridor bathroom with bath with shower over, pumpout toilet and sink in vanity unit. A good size bedroom has a wardrobe and dressing table with drawers.The engine room houses the Lister HR2. At the stern is a boatman's cabin with cross bed. This is a great opportunity to buy a boat with bags of character & style in need of some light modernising.
