Whaley Bridge narrowboat that hosted Princess Diana for sale

A well-known narrowboat that once hosted Princess Diana has been put up for sale.

In 1990, the Princess of Wales was crowned Rose Queen of Whaley Bridge and spent time on the Judith Mary II narrowboat on the Peak Forest canal.

Built in 1988 at Chappell & Wright ironworks, the commercial boat has since taken about 8,000 visitors on trips along the waterway each year.

It has been listed for sale for £300,000.

While visiting the boat in the Derbyshire town, the princess enjoyed a poached salmon buffet, estate agents Gascoigne Halman said.

Manager Lorraine Batty said: "This narrowboat has not only provided extraordinary dining and boating experiences throughout the years but has also become an iconic landmark in the heart of Whaley Bridge.

"It is a remarkable vessel with a rich history which awaits fresh ownership to steer it to even greater success."

Measuring 71ft 6in (21.7m) in length and 6ft 10in (2m) in width, Judith Mary II has capacity to seat 40 passengers.

It includes a bar, kitchen and two toilets.
