Montgomery Canal

 All the following photos were taken during Whitsun this year and show the current state of play with the Montgomery Canal, specifically with the lengths immediately beyond the current limit of navigation. 

Les Symonds

1. The current limit of navigation at Gronwen Wharf, bridge number 82.


2. The new lift bridge on the recently re-watered length south of bridge 82.


 3. Off-side property with inset, online mooring at Redwith Bridge.


4. Redwith Bridge, number 83, at which point the canal bed is dry, but under reconstruction.


5. South of Redwith Bridge the eastern bank is now complete, with a decorative stone

facing being applied above the water level.


6. Bridge number 84, where the canal bed remains dry and as yet mostly untouched beyond the clearance of trees.
