Right boot, black, under the bridge, laces gone. That's the entry entire. I do remember stooping to get under Morley Lane bridge to look at it proper, because the towpath drops there and I weren't as careful with me knees then as I am now.
Whether the laces went before the boot arrived or after isn't summat the book addresses, and it isn't summat I address either. No photograph is mentioned, so I'll assume none were taken. Conditions: not noted. I weren't noting conditions in them days.
