  4. Pinders Shed is just by the letters TRO (of Armstrong) on the map. Yes the arm I mentioned is the outlet for the Pumphouse but I am quite sure that was where they were building boats as well.

  7. I've looked through my photos and can't find anything either. This is the arm I'm thinking of and yes there was a wobbly bridge across the head of it: Found this on the web which I think is the same shed.: From this thread:

  10. We lived in Worcester from 1978 to 2003 and often walked down the canal and around Diglis Dock and I do remember the shed I mentioned having wide beam steel hulls in it, as well as narrow boats. Just can't remember what the business name was. If I remember rightly they built in the shed to the side and either sideslipped them in or had a big industrial crane in the building.

  12. Weren't Viking Marine the hire boat company that were based in Lowesmoor Basin? We were hiring from them the week they went bust and never got our deposit back.
  13. Was this the company that for a time were down in the shed in the arm that runs parallel to the two locks down into the river, on the other side of the Lock Keepers house? (To the left of "Cafe Afloat in this map) https://goo.gl/maps/sBDw3oENkdLqbejYA

  17. With 2 crossings of the A483 trunk road between Llanymynach and Welshpool having been obliterated I cannot see that section ever being reopened. Waterways Wales are currently doing some work on the isolated section opposite Garthmyl Hall.
  18. There is a slight flow in and out of the relevant section of the Monty. I think the only section that doesn't have any appreciable flow is the last section alongside the A483 just outside Newtown, where Abermule Lock is.
