I'd say definitely the Manchester Ship Canal, from the style of the tug. Here is a photo of a similar combination of cargo vessel and tug on the canal.

It's great to be able to place this and the other two in the group! We'll update the catalogue and post the new data here in due course.

I shall start the ball rolling on this one by commenting that this series of three photos were taken on the same day and show a tug towing an ocean going ship along a canal. The canal is likely to be the Manchester Ship Canal. I can not read a name of either of the vessels. The three photos in the series are EAW015932 EAW015933 and EAW015934
