For a sort of on the boil towpath/county lane bimbler project. Ideally I'd like something like a 2.3, does anyone do one?

Schwalbe big apple. I have 2 inch that I use for that sort of use. I believe they do a 2.3

Oh they do a 2.35. However I question the need for a tyre that big, unless its just for more diameter. To gain the benefit of the extra width I would have thought you'd need to run them soft to feel the benefit and then they'd feel a bit slow for tow paths etc.

but don't let me stop you
