Thanks RDB. It's been about six months all told, since work began.

Nice - two locks in a row?

You're very welcome.  No doubt they took their time to do the job right the first time.  It will be nice to see the boats running up and down the canal again.

The full flight of locks is about 17, over a distance of around a kilometre and a half.

Once the grass and bushes regrow it will be beautiful again.

Hopefully with all the rain youve had that wont take too long.

By the Autumn it should have recovered.
