Trent Lock Dry Dock

Trent Lock Dry Dock is a secure, undercover boat workshop situated at Trent Lock on the Erewash Canal. The facility operates under the name Cherilton, a water-based workshop with a long history on the Erewash.

The current family team has been based here since 2018. The dry dock is available for DIY use, allowing boaters to carry out their own maintenance work, or the team can provide a complete hull blacking service.

It offers a friendly, hands-on environment suited to narrowboat owners looking for flexible out-of-water servicing options.
