Living In Yalding Upon The Narrowboat, "Moonstone"

A Memory of Yalding.

I had many very, very happy years living aboard a canal narrowboat named "Moonstone" at Yalding. I bought this boat in Worsley, Greater Manchester in 1987 and finally moved her back to the canal system (to West London) in 1995. Whilst at Yalding, I had moorings both at Hampstead Marina and at Jim Breden's Boatyard. "Moonstone" was painted red, yellow and cream and was often cruised up and down the river between Allington and Tonbridge. I made lovely friends of those who also lived aboard small boats in the area and within the delightful village and local cafe. Does anyone remember me ... or the very distinctive boat? Please get in touch!
