When we launched this project six months ago I never
thought that we would have made so much progress. The aqueduct and
canal bed are clear and we can see what was lying beneath all that
vegetation. We have started removing the trees who's roots have caused
major damage.
(Please remember that although we have to
remove a few trees that are damaging the canal infrastructure, we do
plant many, many more.) Plans are underway to get a machine in to level
the far end of the basin, excavate part of the lock chamber and rebuild
the length of towpath that we have cleared. It is very encouraging
for us to receive the favourable comments we get from the numerous
walkers and visitors to the site.
