Tylers Lock - Wedding venue extraordinaire reborn from the ruins of a canal pumphouse
tylers lock-history reborn !!
The new site everyone is talking about,
and featuring the now massive cult status
Stiffsteiff Teddy Bear family, also contains
details of this famous Worcestershire landmark. Nestling on the Worcester and Birmingham canal at Tardebigge, this used to be the pump
house for the longest flight of locks in Europe,
which still exist, and still work perfectly.
Until recently the same could not have been
said about the Pump House, however, with
sheer determination, one of the country's
leading chefs has transformed it into a
Wedding /special occassion venue
extraodrinaire, and in the process saved
a piece of local history intact and secure.
The owners would very much welcome
any material whatsoever relating to the
Pump House and it's history, especially
old photos and maps, which could be
scanned and returned by the Stiffsteiff
expert, or brought in person.
The Stiffsteiff bears site itsselfwill allow
you to LAUGH, and have FUN, without
resorting to crudity, smut, or porn.
This is somewhere your kids can actually
go without you wondering about the
content, and they will learn new things
through following the bears; gardens,
countryside, photography,
ponds, walks,
National Trust houses. I am sure you
would rather have them being interested
in proper, real pursuits than being cooped
up in their room with a TV and a computer
for friends. So through their computer
they LEARN there are more worlds than
their important seeming virtual world.
For bigger kids there are superb fully
downloadable photos, and the originals
can be requested and delivered via email.
There are practical, pictorial step by
step projects showing how to do various
jobs outdoors, ponds, lawns, landscapes,
gardens. Also there are computer tips,
and an amazing feature where the author
of the site, an ex systems programmer
will ressurrect cds sent to him deemed
ruined; so your holiday snaps might
well NOT be beyond repair!!
He also fixes pictures, either via email
or by scanning in posted snaps, and
returning them.
The site can be found by typing
Stiffsteiffs or "Tylers lock"into ANY
search, or by clicking the link below now.
