The charge is a ridiculous sum of money to pay to be there. It’s a charge to deter over staying, it’s really a fine. But CRT can’t issue fines. So 🤷♀️ And Widebeams? Obviously a generic/default sign with no thought given. And as you say we pay a license which allows us to moor (and for up to 14 days at a time). Been in Tewkesbury today, the visitor moorings at Avon lock are signed 48hr, then £100 per day for staying longer so CRT's look like a bargain. 34 minutes ago, ditchcrawler said: So, is it a lock mooring, service mooring (note the tap) or a 1 day mooring just below Foxton Locks I was confused when I moored there overnight.

Makes you think…a boat with a good trading business could cover that. I wonder if they’d take a month up front? 😃 mind, legally I think it’s 28 days limit for temporary trading 🤷♀️ either way..

As the word has no specific qualification, it could mean grass cuttings and so on - garden debris, canal verge debris. It's not in common usage, is it. Use the brown bin for your arisings. ??

They use it to define the stuff that has been cut down. Once you know that the sign makes sense. It is instructing contractors no to throw tree and shrub cutting debris over the hedge.

MtB Posted November 17, 2022 Report Share Posted November 17, 2022 I think the term could also apply to the sludge lifted out of the canal during dredging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't fret there will be four larger replacements on the way once CRT finish the method statements, risk assessments, order the safety gear and organise four vans and six staff to erect them.
