Well it’s a gorgeous day and BW has begun its work on Lock 7. So I took myself off round there to see what was (or wasn’t) going on, I gather it was lunchtime.
What looks like a building site surrounds the lock…
Heavy lifting gear on the towpath…
Tried to get the whole lock in this photo but couldn’t get close enough. Both front gates are wide open with back gates closed with water pouring through them...
A baby dredger on the left, and just to the right of the lock the overflow is dry, they must have blocked it off at the other end…
The two sets of planks at the marina entrance taken from the towpath side, for the time being the canal water level is quite high…
Right that’s the canal stoppage update done, so here’s some photos of the road stoppage!
The narrow bridge with a nasty right turn is just beyond the railway crossing, but I couldn’t get close enough for a photo…
Walking along a bit further than I should’ve…
After I’d taken these I turned round and walked down the towpath the other way, I took 62 photos altogether! So tune in tomorrow for more weird and wonderful stuff. You know, just like normal really...
