The narrow boat Towy was a river class narrowboat built by Fellows Morton and Clayton Limited, at Uxbridge, Middlesex in July 1938. Towy was one of a batch of 8 motor boats designed to work between Stanlow Oil Refinery on the Manchester Ship Canal and the West Midlands. Like her sister craft, the Towy was named after British rivers, the "T" names signifying craft built or acquired in that year. Other 1938 craft include Tweed, Tay and Tees while 1937 boats are "S" and include Stour and Spey. The batch of boats was completed in 1939 with "U"- Usk and Umea. These eight sisters were owned by the well known carrying firm Thomas Clayton (Oldbury) Ltd, specialists in the carriage of liquid cargoes.
