Stockton Moorings are situated on a peaceful stretch of the Grand Union Canal, nestled between the villages of Stockton and Long Itchington in the heart of Warwickshire. The site is positioned at the top of the Stockton Flight of Locks, making it a popular stopping point for boaters navigating this well-known section of the canal.
Surrounded by open countryside and within easy reach of local village amenities, these moorings offer a great base for exploring the wider canal network or simply enjoying the tranquillity of the area.
The site is approximately 135m long and provides space for up to 4 vessels moored against the towpath.

There is a small car park (approx. 10 car capacity) nearby, though this is for general public use, not exclusive use to mooring customers.
