Guyers Lock K&A

[JDR]

Lock out of action since 11:00am today.One of the top gates currently hanging at 15deg C&RT aware and dealing tomorrow apparently.

[JDR]

This is the first lock heading W out of Newbury.

[JDR]

C&RT dealing but crane access to lock made difficult by narrow lane with tight bend by canal. Might be open for Bank Holiday next weekend if all goes well.

Thanks JDR, what a star! AnastasiA "marooned" due to stoppage. Your very kind offer to monitor the situation etc. very much appreciated. Ged

I hope they're not going to take a large crane close to the edge along a narrow towpath again...

Gate reseated, pound refilled, boat afloat. Well done C&RT.

[JDR]

One day stoppage planned for next Tuesday to complete repair work on top gate.

Well done CART indeed, and well done JDR for giving such valuable assistance, working locks and crewing AnastasiA back to her marina mooring at Newbury. Greatly obliged,

Ged
